I have configured a vpn inside whonix gateway on my box. If you have followed the instructrons here and are having difficulties I would be happy to help you out. I just need the output of a few commands.
-
ls -l /etc/openvpn
That command will tell me if you have the proper files in the directory and if they have the required permissions
-
cat /etc/openvpn/openvpn.conf
I want to see how your configuration file is set up
-
sudo service openvpn@openvpn start
This will start the vpn if its not already started. There will be no output from this command.
-
sudo service openvpn@openvpn status -l
Output may indicate what the problem is.
-
cd /etc/openvpn/
sudo -u tunnel openvpn /etc/openvpn/openvpn.conf
Output may indicate what the problem is.
- What vpn provider are you using?
