OpenVPN is a full-featured, open-source Secure Socket Layer (SSL) VPN solution that accommodates a wide range of configurations. In this tutorial, you will set up an OpenVPN server on an Ubuntu 18.04 server and then configure access to it from Windows, macOS, iOS and/or Android. This tutorial will keep the installation and configuration steps as simple as possible for each of these setups.
How to setup a VPN Server using Pritunl on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
To complete this tutorial, you will need access to an Ubuntu 18.04 server to host your OpenVPN service. You will need to configure a non-root user with sudo privileges before you start this guide. You can follow our Ubuntu 18.04 initial server setup guide to set up a user with appropriate permissions. The linked tutorial will also set up a firewall, which is assumed to be in place throughout this guide.
If you followed the Ubuntu 18.04 initial server setup guide listed in the prerequisites, you should have a UFW firewall in place. Regardless of whether you use the firewall to block unwanted traffic (which you almost always should do), for this guide you need a firewall to manipulate some of the traffic coming into the server. Some of the firewall rules must be modified to enable masquerading, an iptables concept that provides on-the-fly dynamic network address translation (NAT) to correctly route client connections.
If your system is configured to use systemd-resolved for DNS resolution, the IP address after the nameserver option will be 127.0.0.53. There should also be comments in the file like the output that is shown that explain how systemd-resolved is managing the file. If you have a different IP address than 127.0.0.53 then chances are your system is not using systemd-resolved and you can go to the next section on configuring Linux clients that have an update-resolv-conf script instead.
The site will return the IP address assigned by your internet service provider and as you appear to the rest of the world. To check your DNS settings through the same website, click on Extended Test and it will tell you which DNS servers you are using.
Configuring your OpenVPN & CA servers to use ECC means when a client and server attempt to establish a shared symmetric key, they can use Elliptic Curve algorithms to do their exchange. Using ECC for a key exchange is significantly faster than using plain Diffie-Hellman with the classic RSA algorithm since the numbers are much smaller and the computations are faster.
First, log in to your Atlantic.Net Cloud Server. Create a new server, choosing Ubuntu 18.04 as the operating system with at least 1GB RAM. Connect to your Cloud Server via SSH and log in using the credentials highlighted at the top of the page.

The commonly used program for setting the network IP address in Ubuntu 18 is netplan. These are the detailed instructions on how to set a static IP address on Ubuntu 18 or newer.Our appliance is based off of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS x64. For instructions on setting a static IP address for Ubuntu 16 or older, refer to this page with instructions for using ifupdown.
Configure a virtual machine utilising what ever region and sizing you want (im utilising a Standard B1s VM with 1 vCPU and 1 GiB of memory). I am also using Ubuntu server 18.04 Long Term Support as my OS.
Pritunl ist eine VPN-Server-Software, die auf der beliebten OpenVPN-Plattform basiert.

Wenn Sie Server-Software verwenden, müssen Sie diese stoppen, da Pritunl sowohl 80 als auch 443 Ports benötigt, um zu laufen.Stellen Sie sicher, dass Ihr System aktualisiert wird.$ sudo apt update$ sudo apt upgradeWenn Sie eine Firewall verwenden, dann müssen wir einige Ports öffnen, damit Pritunl richtig funktioniert.Wenn Sie eine ufw-Firewall verwenden, verwenden Sie die folgenden Befehle. Mehr über die Installation und Verwendung der UFW-Firewall erfahren Sie unter unser Tutorial.$ sudo ufw allow http$ sudo ufw allow https$ sudo ufw allow 10447/udp$ sudo ufw reloadWenn Sie genau hinsehen, haben wir Port 10447 über UDP geöffnet. Wir werden diesen Port für den Betrieb unseres VPN verwenden. Notieren Sie sich also die Portnummer. Sie können jedoch jede beliebige Portnummer wählen.Pritunl installierenSchritt 1: Fügen Sie das Pritunl-Repository hinzu.$ echo "deb bionic main" sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pritunl.listSchritt 2: Fügen Sie das Mongodb-Repository hinzu.
If for some reason the pritunl interface gets connection blocked, Make sure you reboot your server using this command. sudo systemctl reboot And go refresh your pritunl interface website and it should work successfully.
Situation:I have a home network with an IPv4 network 192.1.168.1.0/24 and have been provided with a fixed public IP by my ISP. I would like to set up a downloading station with Sonarr, Radarr and Transmission running on an old Dell XPS machine. I would then like to have all of my downloads to pass through a VPN service provider (NordVPN), however, I would still like to maintain remote access to the machine (I should be able to put my public IP/domain name with a port number and should be connected to the server on my internal network) . I should add, that I also do have a Synology NAS, where the same setup are presently running, however for quicker response, I would like to use a linux-based server.
