OpenVPN on Open ATV 6

[jfish]

I have a OpenVPN server at home, I want to do some tests with a satellite box to connect to my VPN server and all traffic routed thru my VM broadband

Anyone managed to set this up, OpenVPN client on a box

Its just like any linux openvpn client setup.

create a dir in /etc/openvpn

copy the client.conf file, crts and pem files here.

in the client.conf file add the locations of the crts and pem files
e.g
ca /etc/openvpn/ca.rsa.2048.crt
crl-verify /etc/openvpn/crl.rsa.2048.pem

then run the client conf file by using the command below
openvpn /etc/openvpn/client.conf


If your server generated ovpn files it even easier just copy the .ovpn file over to the client and run the command
openvpn /PathToOvpn/opvnName.ovpn

thanks will try that, my openvpn server runs on a Pfsense box and I can download the config file from pfsense, I have so far managed to get my Android phone connected to my vpn so can stream my zgemma box when away from home.
