OpenVPN on iOS in China

Post by nlucchesi » Sun Sep 06, 2015 10:06 pm

I installed OpenVPN on my iPhone and it works well ... everywhere but China. Apparently the OpenVPN handshake is detected by the Great Firewall through deep packet inspection and OpenVPN connections are disrupted.

A standard work around for other users is to use a proxy created by the TOR project, obfsproxy:

But I don't see a way to configure OpenVPN for iOS so that it routes through a proxy. Is there?

Is there any way to use OpenVPN on my iPhone in China?

Thank you.
