Trying to configure Open VPN with NordVPN

Post by ianred »

I have an Asystor As=204te and have been trying to configure it to run NordVPN with teh openvpn gui. It fails to load the certificate and will not connect.

I have been on chat with NordVPN and they need to locate the openvpn.conf file but I cannot find it using ssh. I have also tried the cli "openvpn --config file", but that syas it cannot find it.

Wouls appreciate any assistance.

I am not sure if it is what you are asking (what "openvpn gui" do you have in mind?), but I successfully configured my VPN provider connection in Settings -> Network -> Network Interface section on first attempt. In configuration screen I uploaded .ovpn and .crt (certificate file you are mentioning) files obtained from my provider.

If you want manually tinker with config files, they are located in:
/volume0/usr/builtin/etc/vpnclient

The .crt file you can find there is actually an openvpn .ovpn file, with embedded certificate data.
