That can be used regardless of whether the array is started or not. I have a homogenous OpenVPN everywhere setup. I have not yet looked into wireguard configuration, nor do I know if I can use it on a couple slightly restricted machines. I will look into it though.
July 13, 20215 yr Anyone has a mirror of the last (or any!) "openvpn_client_x64.plg" File? I have it running on 3 boxes and it works great. Im building a new box so I need to install it. Is there another openvpn client for the bare metal unraid?

I use encryption and I would love to be able to recover in case my battery power ran out and the server had to be shut down. Oh my. This is some really bad news as far as I am concerned. I heavily rely on the possibility to have en OpenVPN server running on Unraid (not the OpenVPN-server-AS docker container). Is there any way I can backup the plugin from my machine where it is already installed so that I can reinstall it in case I need to ?

August 19, 20214 yr I wrote a tutorial on how to manually install an OpenVPN server on Unraid if anyone is interested: Best, OP

I've had OpenVPN installed and running for a couple of years. Somehow I had lost the x attribute and wasn't able to add new clients. Your post hinted me to check it and it fixed my issue.
November 3, 20214 yr Hi there, I would like to point out again that I forked the petersm1 project on GitHub a long time ago. I modified the plugin, It now uses Layer 2 (tab device) by default, i.e. a network bridge to the existing br0 in Unraid. If you prefer layer 3, i.e. a routed network, you should switch to Wireguard or something similar. Layer 2 has the advantage that it is seen like a "real" LAN cable, broadcast etc. comes through, I personally use it to connect with my friends online and to be able to play classic "LAN" Games together. However, if you want to access with Android, you need the app "openvpn pro", because android can only emulate tap without being routed, which is also the only app that I know of. Windows, Linux and Mac have no problems whatsoever. openvpn 2.4.9 is used, The easyrsa installation has also been fixed. who wants to start openvpn automatically after a system restart (without a started array because it is encrypted) can add that to /boot/config/go : ##OPENVPN-SERVER source /boot/config/plugins/openvpnserver/openvpnserver_cert.cfg logger "Starting OpenVPN Server" /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/openvpnserver/scripts/rc.openvpnserver start | logger https://github.com/DeBaschdi/openvpnserver Plugin : https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DeBaschdi/openvpnserver/master/openvpn_server_x64.plg Edited November 3, 20214 yr by DeBaschdi
November 5, 20214 yr Unfortunately, petersm1 deleted his github repository, which is a shame. I would also like to keep the client alive as a plugin. Has anyone still installed it by any chance and can I make it available to me for a reborn? **edit got it Edited November 5, 20214 yr by DeBaschdi

I did have quite a bit of TLS friction with this plugin without any obvious ways to fix it except disabling TLS outright (oof), but at least I finally have a server running again The first TLS error I ran into was telling me that client (open vpn 2.4.9 windows client) and server had no ciphersuites in common with the suggestion to relax --tls-cipher options. Any plans to maybe expose that? I guess I can always telnet in and do that stuff in the consol, but your plugin is so user friendly otherwise ❤️

March 24, 20224 yr hi @DeBaschdi, I did the install the plugin and everything seemed to be going well but when I get to START THE SERVER it jusut not happening. Any clue? Thanks.
March 24, 20224 yr Your Lan Gateway should be your Router (Single IP) And your Client DHCP Range need to be in the same Subnet. Try DHCP Range 192.168.10.200 192.168.10.254. Please take a look at your dhcp Range from your Router and Free that Range.
May 16, 20224 yr I had to change my Unraid USB drive and I lost my OpenVPN setup. I managed to grab and install the forked (TAP) server plugin linked a few post above. It's been running fine for a month or so. Yesterday I rebooted the Unraid server and now OpenVPN won't start. The logs showed no error, but I copied the startup command shown in the log /usr/sbin/openvpn --writepid /var/run/openvpnserver/openvpnserver.pid --config /mnt/user/appdata/openVPNserver/openvpnserver.ovpn --script-security 2 --daemon and ran it in shell. It gave an error: /usr/sbin/openvpn: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I created a symbolic link for the file in '/usr/lib64'. It then complained about another file: /usr/sbin/openvpn: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Again I created a symbolic link for it. Then it gave an error: /usr/sbin/openvpn: symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/openvpn: undefined symbol: SSL_library_init This I don't know how to fix. I'm guessing it's some kind of library mismatch. I don't remember updating anything related to either Unraid or OpenVPN. So I don't understand what broke or why.

September 21, 20223 yr New Version is online, - Fix again for RSA-Download, - i added some more Options in cert settings to adjust expire days. Edited September 21, 20223 yr by DeBaschdi
August 31, 20232 yr @DeBaschdi is there any way to get https://github.com/DeBaschdi/openvpn_client_x64 working on v6.12.3?
