Your question is overly vague which makes it hard to provide the best possible answer.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish using a proxy?

Is there a specific proxy protocol that you require or are you willing to use an OpenVPN client?

Step by step documentation is already available here:
https://openvpn.net/vpn-server-resources/

This include documentation on installing OpenVPN AS, how to configure it to route all traffic or specific network subnets. It also gives step by step instructions on how to download, install and run the OpenVPN Connect software on the client computer.

OpenVPN accomplishes the same sort of function as a proxy server but is it's own protocol and not compatible with proxy clients such as SOCKSv4 or SOCKSv5.
