Hi All, Just thought I'd post this after 3 days of racking my brain and many failed attempts at setting up Open VPN with Private Internet Access on my VU+ Duo2.
First off you'll need an account with PIA
Secondly you'll need this file:-
openvpn.zip (Downloaded from PIA's website)
Extract the contents of the zip, copy the two files *****.crt and *****.pem to a folder named openvpn
next you'll need to choose one of the *****.ovpn (Your choose depends on what country you want to use)
rename that *****.ovpn file to client.conf and open in notepad (TXT Editor)
It will look a bit garbled but edit it to look like this:- "I Used US-California OVPN File"
client
dev tun
proto udp
remote us-california.privateinternetaccess.com 1198
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
cipher aes-128-cbc
auth sha1
tls-client
remote-cert-tls server
auth-user-pass
comp-lzo
verb 1
reneg-sec 0
crl-verify crl.rsa.2048.pem
ca ca.rsa.2048.crt
next you'll need to do a bit more editing so it will look like this:-
client
dev tun
proto udp
remote us-california.privateinternetaccess.com 1198
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
cipher aes-128-cbc
auth sha1
tls-client
remote-cert-tls server
auth-nocache
auth-user-pass /etc/openvpn/password.txt
comp-lzo
verb 1
reneg-sec 0
ca /etc/openvpn/ca.rsa.2048.crt
crl-verify /etc/openvpn/crl.rsa.2048.pem
log /etc/openvpn/openvpn.log
Ok now save that file to the folder openvpn with the other two files earlier.
now create a new txt file called password.txt
log in to your web account with PIA and go to control panel and generate a "PPTP/L2TP/SOCKS Username and Password"
copy that user and password to the password.txt file user on one line and pass on another like this:-
4fd5ge6
4d7ger4
save that to openvpn folder
then save the folder somewhere safe.
install openvpn on your box under menu setup network openvpn
let the box reboot
copy the 4 files in your openvpn folder to your box root/etc/openvpn/
start openvpn from box and you're done.
ENJOY !!!! :cool:
