Help for a total noob (xubuntu 15.10, OpenVPN 2.3.7 (repo))

Hi,
I dont know how to config the client.conf file. I read the example under /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files/ and I dont understand much.
FOllowing the instructions (https://openvpn.net/index.php/open-sour ... o.html#pki) I tried to Generate the master Certificate Authority (CA) certificate & key, commands executed as follows:
I also have Gadmin 0.1.1 installed and I have no idea how to use it. I dont know if I have to disregard the CLI instructions and just fill in the brackets in the GUI. If thats the case, I dont even know where to find server addresses and ports. I dont even know if I have to pay to use openvpn.
If I configure Openvpn as a server, that means I would be sharing my bandwidth with you all, is that correct?
thanks

Code: Select all
dexter:/usr/share/easy-rsa$ . ./vars
NOTE: If you run ./clean-all, I will be doing a rm -rf on /usr/share/easy-rsa/keys
dexter:/usr/share/easy-rsa$ ./clean-all
rm: cannot remove ‘/usr/share/easy-rsa/keys’: Permission denied
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/usr/share/easy-rsa/keys’: File exists
dexter:/usr/share/easy-rsa$ sudo ./clean-all
[sudo] password for dexter:
Please source the vars script first (i.e. "source ./vars")
Make sure you have edited it to reflect your configuration.
