openVPN Server handling requests

[konnn]

Hello,
Let's assume that an openVPN server's built . A client requests an https website. As far I know the data will be encrypted with the protocol that openvpn uses, then transferred to the server side, decrypted and now the latter requests the initial website. Will that server uses the https protocol at his turn? Is it autosetup when building the openvpn or the admin have to enable any module at the server before?

The main question though is, does the server follows the initial request protocol, like https, sftp etc towards the target website or another set up must be done to the server who works as a vpn server, too.

Thank you.

The openvpn server simply forwards the packets to the target (with or without NAT), the client determines the protocol (unless you do something funky on the server).
