OpenVPN for MAC PDF Print E-mail
Written by Administrator   

First, you will need to download and install the OpenVPN GUI (Graphic User Interface) from http://www.tunnelblick.net/ .

http://www.tunnelblick.net/Tunnelblick-Universal-3.0b6.dmg

To install Tunnelblick, download Tunnelblick-Universal-3.obg.dmg, mount the image and drage and drop the Tunnelblick.app to your Applications folder (right next to it in the folder). For security reasons, on first startup, as well as when changes to the configuration files have been made, it will ask you for your login password. Tunnelblick will look for OpenVPN configuration files in Library/openvpn in your home folder (not the system /Library folder), so copy your files there. Should this folder not exist, Tunnelblick will create it for you and populate it with an example config file which can be edited to your liking.

To uninstall Tunnelblick, simply move it to the trash.

To login, use the graphic tool. Make sure someone has created the VPN account and confirmed your password first!
