Yep, That's Me!
I need some HELP!
I'm not too fluent in UNIX. My friend helped me compile OpenVPN and all was going good until I needed to wipe my HD (on the client computer) and I forgot to backup my OpenVPN client script. I would ask my friend to help me out, but he is out of town. I did as much as I could, I was basically relying off the "HOW TO" part of the OpenVPN website and my memory.
The following are the steps I take to get the VPN working: (normally)
1) sudo su (I will post a different subject about that, but it works)
2) cd /usr/local/sbin/openvpn
3) ./openvpn --config client.ovpn
After the steps are performed I get the following error:
1) vi client.ovpn
I don't know what to do, what are missing parameter(s)?
- Thanks!
client.ovpn (script)
