HMAC problem is fixed! IPv6 still fails though; is there anything I can provide to help? It does work manually but otherwise it fails on two different Yosemite DP4 installs.

b18 seems unable to use my SSL certificate (which is present in the connection details and used to work in earlier versions):
Options error: --pkcs12 fails with 'pkcs.p12': No such file or directory
Options error: Please correct these errors.

same issue here for b18. Tried rolling back to b17 just to see what happened, and it's a no-go too (can't find a tmp file).

b14 is working for my SSL-based VPN, it's broken since b16 (haven't tried b15).

Hi DJay,
That doesn't look directly related to the beta version: I'd recommend you try restarting your computer and ensure no other VPN clients are running at the same time. An adapter number of 155 means you either have a lot of stuck connections or another application is interfering with Viscosity's TUN/TAP drivers.
Cheers,
James
