Idiot guide for Ipad IOS9

Post by Scalextrix » Sun Sep 20, 2015 5:55 pm

So I have an OpenVPN server on my synology NAS. I have a good clienton my Andriod phone, and now Im trying to get an IPAD working.

Is seems I cant just ipmport the .ovpn and .ca files into the IPAD, as the IPAD wont recognice the certificate.

From browsing help, I think I need to import the certificate into the .ovpn file, but I have no idea what lines to add to the .ovpn.

I assume I would have to extract something from the .ca, to actually insert into the .ovpn, but I dont know how to do that either.

Thanks, in advance.

Add the ovpn and ca file using itunes. Under your device, there is a section for OpenVPN to add documents for the app to use. That is how I imported them.
