[Question] Manual execution of OpenVPN Server

[Santiago C]

Hi!

I am trying to run a 3rd ovpn server in my AC68U (Merlin 378.55) but I cannot create the virtual adapter (like tap22). I think that is the only missing piece, I already have iptables set, ovpn config and can connect. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks!

Hello Santiago,
If you don't get an answer here - and I think it unlikely (other than to enquire why on earth you need 3 servers) - you may well find the level of expertise you're looking for in a forum dedicated to OpenVPN.

Thanks for your reply! I think I finally cracked it out, had to dig into asuswrt source code (to see what it did behind curtains upon enabling a server) and was able to start the daemon, establish a working connection and close the daemon. I will clean my script and post it here sometime.
As for your inquiry, I wanted to have an ovpn server using ProxyChains to re-direct traffic though TOR's socks server also running on my router, although the last part was not successful. What was the purpose? No purpose at all, just proving that I was able to get it done if I wanted to.. that's how you learn...
