OVPN allocates shared (NAT) IP addresses to connected clients. You'll will need our Public IPv4 add-on in case you access your server remotely.

Install OpenVPN on Fedora

1. Download components

dnf update && dnf install openvpn unzip

2. Download the configuration you want

3. Enter your login credentials

echo "CHANGE TO YOUR USERNAME" >> /etc/openvpn/credentials
echo "CHANGE TO YOUR PASSWORD" >> /etc/openvpn/credentials

4. Start OpenVPN and see that everything works

openvpn --config /etc/openvpn/ovpn.conf --daemon

5. Verify that the connection was successful

Wait about 30 seconds and then run:

curl https://www.ovpn.com/v2/api/client/ptr

You should see something like:

{"status":true,"ip":"the external ip","ptr":"PTR for the IP address"}

6. Done

Congratulations! Your device is now protected behind OVPN and will automatically connect on reboots. If you encountered any issues, please send the log file (/tmp/openvpn.log) to our support.
