how to integrate openvpn certs into softether?

Post by ingber » Sun Oct 26, 2014 1:58 am

On https://www.softether.org/ it states that "You can integrate from OpenVPN to SoftEther VPN smoothly."

I do not see how to do this on either or both (my preference) Windows 8.1 Pro x64 and Android 4.4.2?

For example, I have certificates from PrivateTunnel which can be used with OpenVPN instead of their own app on both of these platforms. How can I integrate these certificates into SoftEther instead?

I'm running the latest SoftEther on our PCs and Androids, but I want to use the PrivateTunnel certs to connect me to faster VPNs.

You can use existing OpenVPN application.
However, please reconfigure your client.

Where to I drop in my current .ovpn files that look like:

client
dev tun
proto udp
remote XXX.com 1194
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
ns-cert-type server
comp-lzo
verb 3

<ca>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
XXX
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</ca>

<cert>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
XXX
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</cert>

<key>
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
XXX
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----
</key>

key-direction 1
<tls-auth>
-----BEGIN OpenVPN Static key V1-----
XXX
-----END OpenVPN Static key V1-----
</tls-auth>

Do you acquire an OpenVPN setting file from the VPN server?

SoftEther VPN doesn't support cert auth on OpenVPN.
