OpenVPN iPhone app and Google Authenticate

Post by dchill » Fri Sep 12, 2014 10:34 am

Hi

Very quick and possibly quick answer (i hope).

I have the iPhone OpenVPN app and have setup to use Google Authentication on my admin/client. Done the whole scan thing but can not undertsand how i input my password and the 6 digit Google code in the phone App.

Example:
======
existing password (6 digit code) - no gaps ???


Alos when Google Authenticate is selected, do i need to download and install a new profile on my phone app from the server.

Background
========

* Have OpenVPN running as a server on my Ubuntu NAS

* When Google Authenticate is not selected then existing password works fine and connect to VPN


Can anyone help?

Found the answer and thought I would share.

Once Google Authentication has been setup, you need to download and install a new profile on your phone.

Once that is done the app shows a new box where you input your 6 digit google code.

As simple as that.

Now - if i can just get my VPN link between my two Ubuntu servers sited at 2 different addresses I will be a very hapy boy. :D
