will running an update first not help your cause.

Quote from master G

I`ve added another version that should install this time.

thanks again master g but now further missing dependencies

root@dm800:/var/volatile/tmp# opkg install python-textutils_2.7.13-r1.3_all.ipk

Installing python-textutils (2.7.13-r1.3) to flash...

I thought you could run opkg update on a dodgy vix box. It's opkg upgrade you can't. Isn't it?

thanks you master g but sadly now says kernel to old and will not reboot

no wonder I've always avoided clones :cursing:

will flash another image on

but a massive thank you for your help mate :thumbup:

thanks so much you just saved me one big headache

I was wondering if anyone here could help me with setting up a shortcut to toggle openvpn on /off. I only really want to have openvpn running at certain times, when I'm watching football etc so is there a way that I can assign a button on the remote to toggle the vpn?

The closest I can get so far is to get openvix to open the network menu which isn't great!

Thanks

Hi. I recently installed on my VUDUO2 openVix 5.2 and installed the openvpn. I did everything like you mentioned, step by step. But nothing.

What I do not understand also is step 12. you mentioned that you have to save the opv files as openvpn.conf. Why not any name? as long as it is called .conf instead of .ovp I thought you are good to go, according to other forums? But since I am a newby in this, I do not know.

So maybe you can explain it a bit? Thanks.
What I also not understand is, there are 2 TPC and 2 UDP files. (only one chinese server, not much, but ok for testing for free, right?) So when they all would be in one folder it can not. So I made 4 folders each with the openvpn.conf, CA,crt , USER.crt , login,conf and USER. key files in in. to be able to change the server I installed VPN manager so I can go in application and change it. But the openvpn in openVix stay red. I also reinstalled open vpn restarted. tried to use only one configuration. But nothing.

On other forums I read complete other things. Like you have to change the directory to auth-user-pass /etc/openvpn/login.conf.

and the ca user end key to ca , user, and key files to another directory, like ca /etc/openvpn/ ca.crt user /etc/openvpn/ user.crt and key /etc/openvpn/ user.key/ also that you need to change these 3 files from ATTR 644 to 755 (read write)

Here what I put in the client. as you told us to do....is one of the 2 UDP files (But do you only need the UDP files, not the TCP files? )

Here copy:

client

dev tun

proto udp

remote XXXXXXXXX

resolv-retry infinite

nobind

persist-key

persist-tun

auth-user-pass login.conf

verb 3

cipher AES-128-CBC

pull

route-delay 2

redirect-gateway

remote-cert-tls server

ns-cert-type server

ca user.crt

cert user.crt

key user.key

But anyway I get desperate, then I tried everything, and I am now for a week trying to get it work.

I really need help from you guys,

So please if you have it working. sent me some files please.
Or tell me what I am doing wrong.. Already thank you so much.

Hi hermantel,

I use pure2 image and working for me.

openvpn client on enigma decoder2

on this article we rely on how to add an openvpn client on Dreambox decoders and clones.

First we order our openvpn file from your openvpn server

We proceed to the installation of the openvpn folder via ssh or via telnet

opkg update

opkg list | grep vpn

opkg install openvpn

once installed openvpn on the enigma 2 decoder or enigma through any ftp program we enter etc / openvpn and transfer the client.ovpn file that must be renamed in client.conf

together you receive the pas.key file "on the new firmware is no longer used" to be inserted in your decoder

in rare cases the openvpn folder did not appear enough you can add via ftp

we give permission 755 we return to ssh or telnet and we give the order that at every start of the decoder the openvpn is activated

update-rc.d openvpn defaults

now we can start our openvpn client on our decoder

/etc/init.d/openvpn start

to check that everything went well, just type in the decoder

wget -q -O - http: //checkip.dyndns.org | sed -e ‘s /.* Current IP Address: //’ -e ‘s /<.*$//’

is if all went well as an answer you will have openvpn ip

Hi!
I have a box, run Hyperion 4 (PKT Team), with configured openvpn.
Can i use this vpn for a new box? I don't know the vpn username, password, ip, ... nothing. I have only openvpn config files, from the new box (copied via ftp).
Can i put these files to the new box?

Quote from paddyh

This is a guide for setting up a free openvpn service that im using on my vu+ duo2 on vix image,
not to sure if the same principle is used for other images but i cant imagine that it would be much different.

You can use the same method here for any openvpn service (paid or free)
If you use 'Private tunel.com' leave out the 'login.conf' file
If you use 'Hide My Ass' then make sure you dont have it running on your computer at the same time
as on your receiver, to be sure of this go to 'Task Manager' on your computer and end the 'HMA' task.
If you are for using a free vpn service like myself then be sure to check the 'password' from time to time
as it changes to prevent abuse. Simply edit your 'login.conf' file to change your password (explained more later)

1 : Firstly ensure you have DCC.exe (dreambox control centre) or VCC.exe (vu+ control centre by Lee Hudson) installed
on your pc or laptop. I use VCC.

2 : Next download notepad++ onto your computer (this will be used to make the files)

3 : Make a new folder on your computer and name it 'Openvpn files' save it in documents

4 : Go to freevpn.me and download the certificates bundle in Accounts. Open with 7-zip file manager and
extract the first file and open it in notepad++

5 : <<ca>> Copy the ca.crt from and including ----begin certificate--- to -----end certificate--- and paste it onto a new page
in nopepad++ . go to 'save as' and save it into the new folder you created named 'Openvpn files'. Name the file 'ca.crt' and
in the 'save as type' select 'all files'

6 : <<cert>> copy and paste the .crt file and save it as 'user.crt' save as 'all files'

7 : <<key>> copy the key files and save it as 'user.key' also save as 'all files'

8 : open a new page in notepad++ and put the username and password on it, (this is found on the freevpn.me webpage)
type the user name first and then press enter and then type the password. eg.

freevpnme
Bcxns7dH

name this file 'login.conf' save as 'all files'

9 : delete the <<ca>> <<cert>> <<key>> files from original document that you downloaded

10 : edit the original document and add

ca user.crt
cert user.crt
key user.key

11 : edit the line auth-user-pass and change to

auth-user-pass login.conf

12 : go to 'save as' and rename the document to 'openvpn.conf' and save as 'all files'
be sure to save in the same folder as the rest of the files. (Openvpn files)

you now have all the files you need, your 'openvpn.conf' should look something like

client
dev tun1
proto tcp
remote <IP> <PORT>
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
auth-user-pass login.conf
comp-lzo
verb 3
cipher AES-128-CBC
fast-io
pull
route-delay 2
redirect-gateway
ca ca.crt
cert user.crt
key user.key

13 : open VCC.exe on your computer and connect to you box.

14 : On the 'control panel' go to 'FTP' this will open up 'File Zilla'

15 : The screen is split in half, on the left are documents from your computer and on the right
are documents from your receiver box

16 : Go to 'documents' on your computer and open the folder you made 'openvpn files'

17 : Go to the other side and open the 'etc' folder on your box, scroll down and open the 'openvpn' folder

18 : It should be empty if not delete whatever is in it

19 : Back over to the left side and either double click on the files you made to transferr them to the 'openvpn' folder
or drag them over.

20 : you are now set up and ready to go

21 : Get your remote control and press 'menu' go to 'setup' 'system' 'network' 'openvpn setup'

22 : press 'green' to start the vpn and press 'yellow' to enable autostart

23 : exit out of everything and reboot your receiver

24 : you should be good to go, try accessing something that was blocked by your ISP

25 : to check the external ip of your receiver go to VCC.exe on your computer and go to Telnet

26 : type in the following command

wget -q -O - http://ip.serdit.ro | grep "IP address is"

you can google the ip address to see where it comes from

##if you noticed that you dont have a 'openvpn' folder on your box then go to 'Telnet' and type in the following command

opkg install openvpn

if this has helped you please give a like and if you need futher help let me know and ill try my best!
GOOD LUCK and happy streaming!!!

Great post...all working with hide my ass vpn

On a Zgemma h7s

I can use a vpn on my router, is this good enough or DO I have to use a VPN on my receivers?

edit: Yes it is good for all connected devices!

Hi,

I have a dm800 ferrari clone and just install a black hole image with ssl88F ( have tested with 3.02, 4.5 and 4.7 image versions).

I want put openvpn to work. I've follow the steps i first post, i can activate/deactivate it on openvpn panel, but when i press red button to start vpn, he don't change to green and in current status appears Stopped.

My openvpn.conf is:

persist-key

persist-tun

ping 15

ping-restart 0

ping-timer-rem

reneg-sec 0

remote-cert-tls server

auth-user-pass login.conf

ca ca.cert

cert user.cert

key user.key

#comp-lzo

verb 3

pull

fast-io

can anyone say what's wrong with it?

Regards.

I make progress.

Now in telnet when write the command openvpn start gives me this error:

Starting openvpn: FAILED-> login FAILED-> openvpn.

auth-user-pass login.conf

auth-user-pass /etc/openvpn/auth.txt

in file :

User

Pass

your provider ?

.atari. you can also just add file named pass,file in openvpn provider configs folder on Hard Drive

file contains:

username

password

That way you can have multiple openvpn providers I have 3 for testing

I know it works with some providers with .pass file the user would like to use it manually on stb. I just see that he has certificates so he should also set the path in .conf

ca /etc/openvpn/ca.cert

cert /etc/openvpn/user.cert

key /etc/openvpn/user.key
