OpenVPN Configuration

If you are using Windows then you probably would want to download the precompiled OpenVPN package available here. If not, then you first need to install OpenVPN on your machine. Most Linux distributions include that package already. On Ubuntu/Debian e.g. you would need to run

 aptitude install openvpn

For other Unix/Linux destributions there are similar package managers. If you can't find a package for your OS you can find the source code and compilation documentation on the official OpenVPN website. That website also provides a lot of other useful documentation.

For MacOS you will find some documenation here until we roll out a package for OSX.

Once you have OpenVPN installed please run:

openvpn --mktun --dev tap0 

After that download the configuration file attached below and put them in a directory (for example ~/openvpn). After that you will be able to run

openvpn ~/openvpn/oxmaths.ovpn 

to initiate the connection.
