PIA: new to openVPN - how to check

[chrischambers]

I have just installed openVPN on my raspberry and I am able to connect to PIA with no issues, and now I am just checking it is working as designed, but I am getting a bit confused and concern that it might be leaking DNS and IP packets, and I would very much appreciate someone going over and checking my results. and advising me on any issues.

I have disable my IP6

I have ran the following command

Code: Select all

Code: Select all

curl ipinfo.io/json 

and got this results

• {
  "ip": "1***.***.***.**1.", NOT MY Public IP Address
  "hostname": "No Hostname",
  "city": "London",
  "region": "England",
  "country": "GB",
  "loc": "51.5092,-0.0955",
  "org": "AS20473 Choopa, LLC",
  "postal": "EC4N"

then I ran this

Code: Select all

Code: Select all

sudo service openvpn status 

● openvpn.service - OpenVPN service
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/openvpn.service; enabled)
Active: active (exited) since Thu 2017-01-26 17:25:52 UTC; 16min ago
Process: 396 ExecStart=/bin/true (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
Main PID: 396 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
CGroup: /system.slice/openvpn.service

Jan 26 17:25:52 raspberrypi systemd[1]: Started OpenVPN service.

and the document I got the code from says that the word exited is not good and that I showed be looking for Running.
if this is the case then how can I resolve it ?

Code: Select all

Code: Select all
