    Guide for setting up OpenVPN

    There seems to be a problem with creating a TUN/TAP device required for OpenVPN with the latest release.
    I done this privately for a friend but though i'd share it with you guys.

    Have you tried adding the tun.ko driver to the kernel?
    Code:
    insmod /lib/modules/3.13.5/kernel/drivers/net/tun.ko
    Haven't setup openvpn in Linux for a while but this used to be needed on some distros, including E2 at one point.

    Hi,

    thanks for the guide, i have followed the instructions but am getting the attached error message

    VUError.jpg

    The StartVPN-Server.sh contains the following;

    # Enigma2 OpenVPN Starup Script
    if [ -c /dev/net/tun ] ;
    then echo The TUN Device has been Enabled
    else
    mkdir -p /dev/net
    mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200
    fi
    /usr/sbin/openvpn --daemon --config /etc/openvpn/openvpn.opvn
    echo Please wait...
    echo Your current connection will momentarily be interrupted
    echo while OpenVPN connects to the server.




    any ideas what I am doing wrong?
    VU+ Ultimo
