Re: [opensuse] Connecting to OpenVPN server using NetworkManager

Hi all,
I've just setup an IPCop box with OpenVPN. All is done using Zerina addon.
After setting up the ACL for a client, Zerina provides a zip file
containing: fajar.p12
fajar-TO-IPCop.ovpn

From Zerina example, it uses MS Windows' openvpn client, whereas the above
files are put into it's config directory and the connection can be initiate
immediately.

How do I that with NetworkManager?

You have to install either NetworkManager-openvpn-kde (only 10.3) or
NetworkManager-openvpn-gnome. Afterwards nm-applet or KNetworkManager should
show an option for configuring an OpenVPN connection.
