Please somebody help me with this simple question

Post by mrmrw » Tue Mar 26, 2013 1:17 pm

** Does the iOS app support username / password authentication (like Tunnlebrick / Visosity does) ? **

** If it does not, will it one day and is there any idea of when this may be ? **


----

I would use this to connect my iPhone to my Synology DiskStation. It supports OpenVPN with username / password authentication and a CA file -- but does not require a CERT or KEY file.

----

My config which works on Mac and Windows is below. It does not however work on iOS as it seems the app does not support username / password authentication?

----

dev tun
tls-client

remote *I put my server here* 1194

redirect-gateway

dhcp-option DNS *I put my router IP here*

pull

proto udp
script-security 2

<ca>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
*I put my certificate here*
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

</ca>

comp-lzo

reneg-sec 3600

auth-user-pass





----

I would REALLY appreciate some help with this. Please can somebody help? Much much appreciated.

Yes it works with username and password. You have to add some random key and cert value even if it is not required by server, to make config work on ios. Client will transmit key and cert value but server will ignore it.
