vitis Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Hello, I have installed the client and I am having issues while connecting. I have a working unified ovpn profile and also ovpn/cert/ca - both verified and working. But when I am trying to connect with this Unraid client, the plugin inserts 10 lines saying "dev tap5" to my ovpn profile and that breaks it, so it does not work. Has anybody encountered this problem? You can see part of the ovpn profile below. ############################################## # Sample client-side OpenVPN 2.0 config file # dev tap5 # for connecting to multi-client server. # dev tap5 # # # This configuration can be used by multiple # # clients, however each client should have # dev tap5 # its own cert and key files. # # # # On Windows, you might want to rename this # # file so it has a .ovpn extension # ############################################## # Specify that we are a client and that we dev tap5 # will be pulling certain config file directives # from the server. client dev tap5 Quote Link to comment

sse450 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 (edited) Does anybody use OpenVPN client plugin (2018.04.26) successfully on 6.6.2? When I press Start button on the OpenVPN client page, the page goes blank only with just a "OpenVPN Client" tab and Unraid menu. Cannot reach OpenVPN client settings page any more. The only way to get control of that page is rebooting Unraid. Please advise. Edited October 19, 2018 by sse450 more info on the issue Quote Link to comment
Oestle Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Awesome plugin and easy to use, but is it possible to push custom dns servers? Would love to use my pihole as DNS Server for remote connected clients. I see the option in the openvpnserver.ovpn, but will it persist, when i change it manually, or would i have to change that over and over again? Thanks if someone knows something Quote Link to comment

LondonDragon Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Hi guys, new to Unraid, trying to get the OpenVPN Client to work with a .ovpn file. On the settings its has a option for file but when I click on it its blank and have no options to add one, I tried adding one via FTP into the plugins directory for openvpn client but still no luck. Any pointers appreciated, I did have a read through the first post and its seems the stuff in red is for the server, I just want to run the client with the ovpn profile. Many thanks 1 Quote Link to comment

benflux Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I've installed the OpenVPN client and connected to the VPN on my seedbox. How do I now access the seedbox folders from the Unraid server? Quote Link to comment

If I connect to a separate remote Wifi network, everything works as planned. Quote Link to comment
LondonDragon Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Hi everyone, is there a way to force it to re-connect if the VPN drops? Cheers Quote Link to comment
jedduff Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Hi! The openvpn client thread is inexistant. The link doesn't works anymore http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=19439.0 Quote Link to comment
pr85 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Hi all, I just installed server plugin, and love the ease of use. I am not having any issues connecting to my VPN server, however, I did want to ask if there was a way to create a single-line OVPN file, and have it prompt you for a username and password. I am not sure if there is something that I am overlooking, but did not see it when messing with the settings. Thank you in advance for your assistant, and I really appreciate the plugin.

You can get one inline file, but without password. Quote Link to comment

Is there any update in the works that will enable an inline file to prompt for username and password when connecting? Or do you know of a way to force that within the plugin? Thanks again!

After some additional testing, I noticed the script that gets executed is the following: spawn ./easyrsa <USER> nopass I was able to go into the cmd prompt, create my own user using the command above without "nopass", and set a password. The issue with doing it this way, is that you have to create your own .ovpn file, and place that in the clients directory on the root directory for the plugin. Not a huge deal, but was wondering how easy it would be to modify the plugin, to remove the "nopass" option when creating a user. If needed, I can provide more information on how the process worked, and what I did to manually create my password protected user profile. Thanks! Quote Link to comment

Ryonez Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) How do you set up the vpn client? The head post here links to: Quote More info about Client installation : http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=19439.0 However that's a dead link. Also, the Client configuration file section is just a drop down box with nothing to select. My goal with this is to set up a reverse vpn for dockers to use.

Make a folder called openvpn in the root of your flash drive. Toss your .ovpn file in there. Reload the settings page and you'll be able to select it and go from there.

Will I be able to have dockers/vms use the vpn, but still be able to access their web interfaces? Quote Link to comment

Then go to a page which lists your IP: whatismyipaddress.com so all traffic will go through this VPN. locally you can still access everything.

So goto: `\\<unraidip>\flash` I know how to find the flash drive I want to minimize the read access to this one. that's why I want to move those .ovpn files to my SSD. Quote Link to comment
