Page with instructions on how to install/configure OpenVPN on Kali Linux

Overview

This page covers how to install and configure OpenVPN on Kali Linux. There are a few scenarios we cover.

Install

Follow instructions provided by OpenVPN to install:

wget https://git.io/vpn -O openvpn-install.sh
chmod 755 openvpn-install.sh
sudo ./openvpn-install.sh

This script will ask you a few questions:

  • Which IPv4 address the OpenVPN server should bind to (depends on situation/goals)
  • Setting public IPv4 address (should be detected automatically)
  • Which protocol, UDP or TCP? (UDP default)
  • Port number to use
  • DNS server to use
  • Client certificate name to use

It will then install some stuff, so grab a beverage.

Tunnel Interface

OpenVPN should have created a tun0 interface. Verify this is the case and get its IP address:

$ ifconfig tun0 | grep inet
        inet 10.8.0.1   netmask 255.255.255.0   destination 10.8.0.1
