log question regarding my VPN

[Andy1932]

I've been seeing this in my logs the last few days. Is someone trying to connect/hack into my openvpn server?

Yes. You can expect that to happen when you run your VPN server on a common port.,

Thanks. What should I do? Just change the port?

Yes, just choose a random port between 5001 and 32767.
