At present, UH VPN does not provide a Linux application, but will be releasing one by the end of 2020 targeted | ||
at Ubuntu. In order to provide connectivity to Linux clients, a static profile must be `exported`_. | ||
|
||
Before the profile can be used, one must install OpenVPN using their appropriate package manager. For example, | ||
on Ubuntu the following commands would be executed: | ||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash | ||
sudo apt-get update | ||
sudo apt-get install openvpn | ||
Once OpenVPN has been installed and the UH VPN profile has been exported and is present on your local filesystem, | ||
it can be utilised via executing the following command: | ||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash | ||
openvpn --config <profile>.ovpn | ||
where ``<profile>`` is substituted for the filename of UH VPN profile. Note that the credentials must then | ||
be supplied from the ``credentials.txt`` file supplied with the static profile. | ||
|
||
.. note:: | ||
One may wish to append the .ovpn profile with the ``up/down`` directives in order to execute commands | ||
upon connection or disconnection from the UH VPN server. | ||
