I'm getting "fail setuid(0), must be root to run" in the logs.
Updating to 228 didn't help.

This message indicates that somehow AlmostVPNServer lost its "setuid"
permissions (or maybe have not got it in the first place).

Try to remove ~/Library/Application Support/AlmostVPNPRO and then
start AlmostVPN Pref Pan again. You should be asked for your user
name/password (the same way as when you install AlmostVPN for the
first time).

Thanks! That did it. I had tried various installs and chmod/chown
stuff, but I missed the suid bit.
