User Reviews

  • Great project with new DCO improvements to performance as very credible. I found letting systemd allocate user and group (uncomment user and group) in config files stopped the complaints wrt "lacking CAP_SETPCAP and Cannot retain CAP_NET_ADMIN issues. So if your not trying to use old config files it would work out of the box ,debian 12 documentation files specify running as unprivileged users.

  • OpenVPN is the best. I use ExpressVPN. I've never been happier.
  • Great program. Btw pls consider increasing config limit of openvpn gui from 50 to at least 200 or more. The latest build 1.0.7 only allows 50 config limit. Witopia's 1.0.3 openvpn gui was modified increased to 100 limit ages ago. Personally I am forced to use alternative gui that allows more than that since I have plenty of configs.
  • This software is excellent
