VPN Provider Installation


Recommended Posts

Hi!

 

How can I set up a new VPN provider? 

 

I tried to paste the ovpn config into 'Advanced VPN Connections Settings' but it always failed to connect.

VPN works on macbook with tunnelblick.

 

Thanks in advance,

philiipp

Hi Philipp, I'm just winding down the support call now. I will hopefully be with you within 20mins max. Thanks for being patient.

Ok the solution was to do with the config file itself. There were two things missing from the one he got by his VPN provider.

 

  1. The first line of the config file needs "client"
  2. The ca.crt needs to be inlined, you can do this by opening ca.crt, copying the entire file and pasting inbetween <ca> and </ca>

So just to clarify on the second point. You need your usual config file then at the bottom put

 

<ca>

-paste your entire ca.crt here

</ca>
