Install OpenVPN on FreeBSD

1. Run as superuser

sudo tcsh

2. Download components

pkg update && pkg install openvpn unzip

Why OVPN?

OVPN is a court-proven VPN service that offers secure internet without country or streaming restrictions, and where ads no longer track your every move.

3. Download the configuration you want

4. Enter your login credentials

echo  "CHANGE TO YOUR USERNAME"  >> /usr/local/etc/openvpn/credentials

echo "CHANGE TO YOUR PASSWORD" >> /usr/local/etc/openvpn/credentials

5. Start OpenVPN and see that everything works

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

6. 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"}

7. 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.
