OpenVPN installer for Raspberry Pi.
This script will let you setup your own secure VPN server.
Users with DS-Lite it's recommanded to first read the chapter DS-Lite.
I am at a new ISP which uses DS-Lite. I therefore wanted to setup a OpenVPN that is accessible over IPv6. I searched for similar projects and found the script from WMtech-1 and adjusted it to my need until it worked.
First, make sure IPv6 is enabled
modprobe ipv6Secondly, get the script and make it executable :
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lordnik22/OpenVPN-Installer/master/openvpn-install.sh
chmod +x openvpn-install.shThirdly, run it :
./openvpn-install.sh
The first time you run it, you'll have to follow the assistant and answer a few questions to setup your VPN server.
An example how to answer is provided in Example.
When OpenVPN is installed, you can run the script again, and you will get the choice to :
- Add a client
- Remove a client
- Uninstall OpenVPN
I use a Universale Port-Mapper at feste-ip.net. This makes it possible to access my home-network while I am connected from a IPv4-Network (e.g. most mobilphone-networks are in IPv4). feste-ip.net only supports TCP (never tested with UDP).
Because I used such a port-mapper I needed to supply the DNS/IP of that port-mapper to the script.
Additionally foreach client-file I generate I have to adjust the port which they assigned to me.
For the IPv6 Target Port I used the default OpenVPN port: 1194.
For the hostname I used my DDNS from no-ip.
I use a DDNS from no-ip.net. This makes it possible to access your home-network even if your ISP changes the IPv6 (untested). In theory the IPv6 should never change but I still use it because I already used it with my old ISP which had IPv4.
This script is based on the great work of Nyr and its contributors, Angristan and its contributors and WMtech-1 and its contributors.

Thanks to VMtech-1, the respective contributors, Angristan and of course Nyr's orginal work.
