I am a new mac and viscosity user, so my apologies if the answer to my problem is painfully obvious.

I am able to connect successfully to the server, but just like clockwork the connection gets dropped (times out) after 3 minutes and 50 seconds. Both client and server are set to ping 10 and ping restart 120 and I am using udp.

I've used the same config file on my pc without problem for a long time. Thanks for any help or suggestions you can provide.

Mystery solved!

I still had my pc running on the same LAN and it was also trying to connect to the OpenVPN server (OpenVPN was running as a service, so I forgot about it). Obviously two clients using the same config files and credentials cannot connect from the same IP at the same time. Duh!
