OpenVPN

[jimbodude]

Status on this?  Is there a Trac ticket for OpenVPN?  I see one for PPTP (http://svn.linuxmce.org/trac.cgi/ticket/339) but it looks like it hasn't made it into SVN yet.

OpenVPN and PPTP have been combined and are on the same ticket. The SVN diff is in, so hopefully it will make it to the code soon.

items only make it into the next release if the alpha2 install page is updated:

I've added the ticket.

donpaul, please update this wiki site with instructions:

Try to also include images. Thanks!

Hi, I would like to access web pages on core securely from outside and have been searching various topics and wiki. I suppose this thread is the most current one - is it so? From the previous posts it looked like the OpenVPN was about to be integrated but it's been a bit quiet on this lately.
Any progress?

bump?
Is there any update on this?
I tried the scripts from the svn ticket and am getting errors on a current 0810 install.

thx

I solved my needs by applying these instructions: HTTPS / SSL access on the outside http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/HTTPS

Works very well.

I have been absent for a while, but I'm back with a fresh core and will have an updated and working patch soon. Hopefully my time will allow for more contributions.

Uh.

Why an RPM? You do realize this is a debian distribution?

[donpaul]

I don't know, cause I like building rpm - but you're right.  Here are the scripts in a tarball instead.

*UPDATE: Updated the vpn.tar - minor change to enable IP forward

[donpaul]

Here is the updated SVN diff.

Can someone with perms update the TRAC ticket, since I get an error for spam?
http://svn.linuxmce.org/trac.cgi/ticket/339

*Modified: Updated the svn diff to 23202

[coley]

donpaul,
Your diff is out of date its not diff'd to the latest rev (23202)
Can you update please?

thx
-Coley.

[donpaul]

I added an updated svn diff, and I created a .deb package for the vpn scripts, and attached. If you want PPTP and OpenVPN, simply apply the diff patch and install the deb.

Can somebody test/add the deb to LinuxMCE repository and update the ticket?

Can somebody test/add the deb to LinuxMCE repository and update the ticket?

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.

[coley]

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