OpenVPN - Client config

OpenVPN client config for Linux

to connect to OpenVPN w/out providing username, password and private key password each time,

modify client.ovpn and add these 2 lines

auth-user-pass client.pass

askpass client.priv

script-security 2

up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf

down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf

down-pre

create new file client.pass, add username and password

myusername

mypassword

create a new file client.priv, add your private key password

myprivkeypassword

chmod 400 on both files

now your openvpn will only ask for 2FA code

the up/down scripts will provide proper DNS from the vpn server
