    Unable to connect to an OpenVPN server

    I have an OVPN file that I imported into Tunnelblick on macOS.

    When connecting through Tunnelblick, I am prompted to enter the following credentials:

    Username: MyUsername
    Password: MyPassword
    Security Code: MyCode
    After entering these details, the connection works perfectly.

    However, when using OpenVPN-Connect, I encounter two issues:

    No separate field for the Security Code:
    OpenVPN Connect does not provide an option to enter the Security Code separately.
    I attempted to concatenate the password and security code like this:
    Username: MyUsername
    Password: MyPasswordMyCode
    Connection issues despite authentication success:
    The connection appears to establish successfully.
    However, I am unable to reach the target server, whereas it works fine in Tunnelblick.
    I reviewed the log file and consulted ChatGPT, which suggested that my password combination might be incorrect, leading to authentication failure. However, I tested multiple combinations, and the only one that allows the connection to establish is MyPasswordMyCode. Any other combination results in an immediate failure.

    Could you suggest a solution to resolve this issue? I prefer to use OpenVPN Connect.
