July 15, 201312 yr Pleas post all issue you have in this thread http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=35435 DL the attached plugin (32-bit ), unpack it to plugin folder, then update the plugin from UI to get the latest version. This plugin version is only for TUN. 64 Bit version: Read here for installation : http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=35435.msg330045#msg330045 You copy the plugin to /boot/config/plugins/ and install with (or reboot) 32-bit: installplg openvpn_server.plg When you have installed the plugin, you first needs to change some paths. Path to store server config and cert's Path to store the cert's & key's You can keep all other settings as default, since they shall be OK to get a working server. When saving settings under OpenVPN Server/Daemon Configuration: the openvpnserver.conf will be created / updated same time. First, Install easy-rsa click on Install RSA key management package (easy-rsa) Next, you generate certs / keys for the server, click on Generate server certificates and keys After these steps is done it's time to add clients in the form and click on Add client. You got a completed zip file for each user (config and cert's file) There is also a function to revoke a client, type in the client name an click on 'Revoke client' I do not know if I have missed some info, but however it shall be pretty straight forward. 32-bit Version 1.1.15 attached as an initial install.

July 15, 201312 yr I am not very familiar with openVPN so sorry if this is a stupid question. How will this work with unRIAD? Does it make the unRAID machine the server and you can then you can connect to your home network that way? I am using a pptp VPN with a tomatoes router currently and it works pretty well. The only draw back is the router limits my network speeds to about 7-8 MBytes and if I transfer files over the VPN it's about 500 kBytes/sec. (so slow!)
July 16, 201312 yr I'm running openVPN on my router, and it works perfect ( also from my Iphone) but I really wish to see a plugin as well //Peter I'm curious, what transfer speeds do you get when transferring files to an offsite computer/server with openVPN? pptp gets me around 500-700 KB/sec both networks have 30gb down and 4gb up. I was wondering if it would be worth attempting to setup openVPN on my ddwrt router?
July 16, 201312 yr Author I'm using DD-WRT on my router, but never verified what speed I get. //Peter
August 3, 201312 yr When I am using this plugin, everything installed correctly (except I had to manually find the openvn package). Now when I am trying to connect to it, it's asking for a username/password. I'm running OpenVPN 2.3.1. *EDIT* When I browse to my \mnt\extra\openvpn\server_cert\clients folder and unzip client0.zip - I can import the client0.ovpn file and it works, I can connect and get an IP. One that is done though, I can't see any other machines on the network.
August 4, 201312 yr Author Hi, I'm not so good on all settings to get a proper configuration, there might be something missing in the openvpnserver.ovpn file to get what you want, if so please have a look at http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html#examples , if you find anything that not are implemented in the plugin, then I will add this features Maybe there is a function in the plugin that might need to be enabled? please try any combination ;-) can you connect the client to the server from outside your LAN? do you think we need to work with iptables? //Peter
August 12, 201312 yr Author You do not need any username and password if you have set up the server to not use it, there will be soon a new plugin uploaded for the openvp-client, where you can set to not use password..... //Peter
August 12, 201312 yr Author how do you setup usernames and password? I am new to openVPN If you like to have this function to add Username / password for your server files, I can look at this. Please let me know //Peter
August 15, 201312 yr yes that would be great. I am sharing out my media and want to be able to lock it down, but don't want to use the unraid username and password. don't know if that is possible. also some clients can just use a username and pass it seems a little easier than having the profiles
August 21, 201312 yr Can you post a link for the http of the plugin please. I need to install it via telnet as I am getting an XML parse error using the zip file Thanks EDIT: found it on github
August 21, 201312 yr Author Good, I have a new version with much more features, will upload it this weekend :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2
August 21, 201312 yr Just downloaded the upgrade via the plugin and simplefeatures is displaying a blank page. No errors on the syslog, unmenu working fine and server intact. Still running a parity check so can't reboot yet. Running rc16c Previous version was working fine with simplefeatures
August 21, 201312 yr Author Try to reboot, I have only checked from toms new GUI , and stock GUI is also OK Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2
August 21, 201312 yr Reboot and all is ok. However I cannot get the VPN to start with any configuration. Nothing seems wrong in the sys log. Is there a log for the addon, I am wondering if any dependencies are not met, or something else has not installed correctly. I am having the same problem with getting the webserver addon working as well.
