Ubuntu Networking :: Import VPN Connection From Ovpn File Containing Certificates
Mar 24, 2010
I am fairly clueless when it comes to open vpn configuration file. Though I should have some understanding to execute the fix if it is available.
I have a ovpn file that is created by my organization (so theoretically there should be nothing wrong with it) containing not only the typical connection information, but also my CA key, certerficate/Public and certificate/Private key. I was able to locate these keys using the standard text editors.
When I follow the procedure to import (Right click on Internet Icon --> Edit Connection --> VPN Tab --> Import) none of my keys were imported (perhaps the import is not complete). I think because of the import failure I was not able to click ok and create the connection.
Is there a method to get around this and get it working? I have been looking for existing solution online but I was not able to find any similar cases with mine.

i'm having a hard time trying to import keys and certificates for vpn connection to my work office server.
I have a .p12 file which is the key i'm guessing. I also have a .ovpn file which could be config settings for the connection.
How would i import these files to get a connection up and running.

I have enrolled some certificates from my own ca, to use to a couple of different services, like FTP, WEB, Mail etc. All these certificates comes from the same CA (my own), and I have created a root CA. But is it possible to import this root CA to the whole system, so I do not have to import the certificate or root CA to the different applications like iceweasel/firefox, chrome, icedove, filezilla etc.

I have ovpn configuration files for Windows from SwitchVPN. They do not provide configuration files for GNU/Linux. They said I can extract the certificate and key files from the ovpn files, but I'm confused about how to do that.First of all, I don't know which Authentication Type to choose: "Certificates (TLS)," "Password," "Password with Certificates (TLS)" or "Static Key."
Second, I don't know what to put where from the ovpn file. I see a <ca> � </ca> section and a <tls-auth> </tls-auth> section, but I don't see how those correspond to any of the Authentication Types. "Certificates (TLS)" and "Password with Certificates (TLS)" require two certificates and a key, "Password," requires one certificate and no key, and "Static Key" requires a key and key direction but no certificate. When I connect to SwitchVPN in Windows, it asks for a user name and password.Here's an example of the ovpn files (certificate and key contents removed):
Quote:
route-delay 3
fast-io
client
dev tun
[code]...
how to get what I need from the ovpn files, and which Authorization Type to choose in the Network Manager VPN configuration GUI, and what to put in the blanks?

I run a web server on Fedora 12, principally using Apache, MySQL, and PHP. I host a variety of sites, one of which is a family website that contains semi-sensitive personal data for several hundred extended family members, who all have access to the database-driven site.
Until now, I have been using a self-signed SSL certificate to encrypt the data as it is read and written back and forth from my database. Family members have simply had to put up with clicking past certificate warnings as they enter the site, as most browsers flag self-signed certificates as bad. It hasn't really been that much of a bother, but I'd love to do it more professionally. I have looked into buying SSL certificates, but it's a site I host for free and would rather find a cheap or free alternative if possible.
So I'm just fishing for ideas to work with. What are some alternatives to using SSL certificates for moderately strong website encryption? So far, I run only one host on the domain, but may eventually need encryption that would support multiple hosts. Or does anybody know a way to make self-signed certificates work on most popular browsers without being flagged as suspicious?

We have a web server running apache and a custom web app that we log into from a web browser and it ask you to except the certificate and all is well. I now have an user who is using a window server 2008 and he wants to manually import the *.cer file into his browser to be able to login. My question are:
1 - What is the file that is being imported into the browser? *.pem *.crt
2 - I see on our server that we have our certs I believe located in the /etc/pki/tls/certs. The openRADIUS servers that I have created, this is the directory to where it is stored.Is this the typical placement for certs.
3 -If the files is a .cert or *.pem than could I use openssl to convert them to the appropiate *.cer file for IE7

I am installing some SSL certificates on my web server, however I have a couple questions, as I'm not familiar with this process
1) I'm not sure which directory to put them in? What is good practice? Is /var/www/secure a good location so long as I restrict access to the secure directory?
2) I am told to edit the following in my ssl.conf file of apache2
SSLCertificateFile
SSLCertificateKeyFile
SSLCertificateChainFile
However, I cannot find this file, ssl.conf. Nor can I find the above directives in my main apache2.conf file. Where is the ssl.conf file? Or alternatively, could I just add the above directives to my apache2.conf file?

I noticed that if I bring up an openvpn client connection with the $openvpn client.ovpn command from console, I cannot get out of it.Even if I close the console it was started from it remains on.I tries a bunch of stuff, that all ultimately failed, and eventually rebooted.

Is it possible to set up an OpenVPN without having to issue keys or certificates.All tutorials I found seem to use them.
I want just a basic username/password approach - I don't care that much about security obviously but is it at all possible?

Does anyone know how to configure an SSL cert with GoDaddy? On the following squid page it seems to use x509 and PEM format for everything. GoDaddy seems want CSR files to issue the cert. The x509 & PEM combo don't seem to generate these CSR files in the correct format. Does anyone know the openssl commands to generate the files and the config line(s) to put in squid.conf?
I started from this wiki: [URL]
I also tried following this godaddy wiki, but it was for apache and not squid [URL]

I have openVPN working with a thirdparty CA, and validating UID entries from the client certificates in LDAP groups. My next step is to figure out OCSP to make sure revoked certificates are denied. I could dump out my CRL as a nightly job, but that of course presents a window where a revoked certificate is still valid. how to dump out client certificate back to pem format? For the ldap check all i was using was the DN, which doesn't really help me for openssl/ocsp

I'm using Inkscape, and I'm trying to import an EPS file to use it as a vector and eventually save it as an SVG.
This link here mentions several methods:
[URL]
But the responses aren't rated since it's a forum, so I thought I'd ask here to find the best answer. I'd prefer not to have to use some website to convert the file to a PDF first.
Either way, when I import an EPS into Inkscape, or use the website to convert it to a PDF, in both cases the resulting file loses all colour and gradients, and the EPS file gets cut off on the right side.
It looks like ps2pdf is clipping the file incorrectly, and Inkscape is eliminating the colour.
I have these version installed in Ubuntu Lucid Linux:
Inskape 0.47.0-2ubuntu2
Ghostscript 8.71.dfsg.1-0ubuntu5.3

This is about ubuntu 10.04
I can import projects to my cvs repository only when the repository set to group owner cvs. Which is fine to me.
But I found the project folder/files that I imported into the repository have group name other than cvs (in fact, that's my username). And that prevents others to check out my code.

Have managed to create a simple script to poll the various printers we have at our company for a page count via SNMP. At the moment the script echos the printer name to a text file and then the snmp output is appended to the next line. In my rush I thought by using sed to add a comma to the end of each line would mean it would import in to excel nicely. So rather than having:
Printer 1,
45536,
Printer 2,

Is it possible to have different /etc/hosts file for different network connections without having to go in and change it every time? The why: I have dyndns and port forwarding to get to my desktop. My laptop is sometimes on the same network, and sometimes not. Also, sometimes the dyndns doesn't update properly, or the outside connection is down, but I want to get to my desktop (and I'm too lazy to walk up the stairs). I'd like to be able to keep one set of bookmarks, ssh command aliases, etc. that would always get to it the fastest and most reliable way possible.

I'm working in a school and we have a Apple server, we have many problem with it. So, I would install a linux server instead.
Anyway, there is just one big problem (or I miss a simple tip to do it )
We have 1300 students. If I must create them one by one, that will take a lot of time. Actually with the apple server, we can go on a web interface & import an excel list with theses columns :
"Name", "Login", "Password", "Class", "Group", "HDD Space", "Print quota", "Internet access or not", etc ...
Due to this tool, I can upload an excel files with my 1300 students & a couple hours after, they have an account with a personal space & a shared space with their class.
My question is : This tool exist on Debian/Linux world ?

I've downloaded configuration files for my VPN, Kovurt, and they don't have a .ovpn file extension. Further, when I tried to enter the information manually (using this guide), I saw that the files only include the <ca> tags, and no <cert>, <key> or <tls-auth> tags.
Here is the content of one of the config files, simply named 'Tokyo' with no extension. (adding .ovpn didn't work either):
Code: Select allclient
dev tun
proto udp
remote 50.31.255.86 443
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
[Code] ....
I have an open ticket with Kovurt asking for the other info, but I know already that they don't have much in the way of documentation or support for Linux.

I have read the man of ldif .In my attempt to build my current directory, I have taken a dump of my last successful implementation (which was created on FreeBSD 8.1) and substituted values for the dc=company and dc=com values with the correct ones for the current directory (attempting to implement under CentOS 5.4) and even tho the correct schemas are in place it is choking on entry.
