OpenVPN

[donpaul]

Applied the patch, installed the deb - I'm missing the file userOpenVPN.php  

-Coley.

Ah, ok, here are the php scripts. Untar in /var/www/lmce-admin.

We don't add the deb itself, but would prefer to have the source to the deb, so we can build the deb it as part of our regular building process.

Ok, I will provide the source.

that seems to operate a bit better, tar file looks healthier.
Will see if I can get into my core from outside ( once my isp gets back to me so I can see my IP  )

I have a Wiki page started:

More to come once the captcha is fixed.

Here is the source.

donpaul,

looking at the tar, I fail to see any web admin stuff. Do I miss anything, or is the web admin stuff elsewhere?

I attached the diff svn patch and a tar of the added php scripts earlier in the thread. I did not put those in my deb source - I assumed they should go in the existing web admin package.

Let me know what I can do to help get it in the next snapshot.

Did this ever make it into the release?  If not, can we get this in as a regular feature?

[merkur2k]

it has not.
I have been looking at it lately, but it will need a lot of work to make it play nice with all the other parts of lmce.

What other parts must it play nice with? And what kind of work does it need?

[merkur2k]

it modifies several scripts that will get overwritten by other lmce packages at the next update, most notably the firewall script.

[donpaul]

The only ones that will be modified are the firewall script, and the sysctl.conf file. Both changes are required for openvpn, but not pptpd. I see no reason why the pptpd vpn can't be included, even if the changes can't be made for openvpn.

[merkur2k]

i didn't say it couldnt be done, just that its going to require touching some lmce stuff. and I havent really decided on the best course of action yet.

[Enigmus]

Thank you, Merkur2k, for investigating and working on this feature.
