Installing and configuring an OpenVPN client on OpenBSD involves several steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Install the OpenVPN package by running the command pkg_add openvpn<\/code><\/li>\n
  2. Create a directory to store the client configuration files, such as \/etc\/openvpn<\/code><\/li>\n
  3. Obtain the client configuration files from your OpenVPN server, including the client certificate and key files. These should be placed in the directory created in step 2.<\/li>\n
  4. Edit the OpenVPN client configuration file and set the appropriate options such as the server address, port, and encryption options.<\/li>\n
  5. Start the OpenVPN client by running the command openvpn --config \/etc\/openvpn\/client.conf<\/code><\/li>\n
  6. To ensure the OpenVPN client starts automatically on boot, you can add the above command to \/etc\/rc.local<\/code> file<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It’s important to note that OpenBSD uses the OpenVPN package from OpenVPN Technologies, Inc. and the process of installation and configuration may differ from other version of openvpn. Also, OpenVPN package for OpenBSD may not have the full feature set as compared to other version of openvpn or may be limited by the OpenBSD Security Model.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
