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

You need to be logged in to download the configuration files. Once you're logged in, you will find the files here.

3. Enter your login credentials

echo "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/v1/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.
