Configuration

Host

There are two constrains that must be fullfilled in the host for the server to start properly.

Check if the following kernel modules have been loaded

lsmod | grep tun

and

lsmod | grep tap

In case of missing modules run

modprobe tun tap

Container

Run

docker run -ti --network host --privileged --cap-add=NET_ADMIN -p 943:943 5thempire/openvpn bash

Network host

Use network host and verify all the network devices are available. NET_ADMIN should provide access to iptables inside the container.

ifconfig

openvpn-as

Configure openvpn-as webui

sh /usr/local/openvpn_as/bin/ovpn-init

Assuming you've chosen all interfaces and the port 943, you should have been provided with a link similar to the following http://192.168.0.10:943/admin.

Set a password for your openvpn docker user

passwd openvpn

Visit the link, the user is openvpn and the password is the one you've just provided.
