OpenVPN Docker Compose setup based on kylemanna/docker-openvpn
This setup has been tested on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS. As the version of docker-compose is 1.5 on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS at the time of this writing and this version doesn't support v2 config files you have to update docker-compose first
sudo apt-get install python-pip
sudo pip install --upgrade pip
sudo pip install --upgrade docker-compose
- running Docker environment
- docker-compose with support for v2 configuration files (see above for upgrading docker-compose if v2 files are not supported)
Initialize the server with scripts/init.sh. This has to be done only once. You have to provide the FQDN of the OpenVPN server. This will be used in the ovpn files of the Cliens
Start the VPN server with scripts/start.sh. It will run a Docker container named openvpn.
Use scripts/gen_client_cert.sh to generate a client certificate. You have to enter the FQDN of the client host and the password for your CAs private key. The script will generate a ovpn config file in certs/CLIENTNAME.ovpn.
