Hello friends,
I want to automate account creation on my openvpn server so that I do not manually have to create usernames and passwords on the openvpn server.
At the same thing, I want users to be able to sign up on my site and then get their username and password automatically created to access openvpn...I have seen this work on some sites, has anyone here ever done such a setup?
This is my very first post and here am I seeling for help. Thanks for taking the time out to help. I don't mind paying for your help.
Best regards,

I tried to post this in the linked thread but it didn't work, so here it is.
----
OpenVPN + RADIUS and have RADIUS authenticate against a MySQL back-end. Then you can use MySQL replication (or scripts if you prefer) to distribute authentication credentials.
I'm currently doing this exact architecture with >100 VPN servers. I add user accounts via my website (after user pays for the account) and it distributed the auth creds to all servers without me having to do any work at all. The architecture does the work for me. I also have my systems setup so that I can create dedicated VPS (OpenVZ) nodes running OpenVPN for pro-level accounts without any work on my end either - the user pays, the script executes some vzctrl commands to make the VM and connect RADIUS to the master MySQL server and bam! Done.
RADIUS is far better than some weird custom setup.
