    In step #2 you transferred the contents of the HMA_openvpn.zip to /etc/openvpn folder.


    There are 3 scripts which you need to change permissions / attributes for and move them to /usr/scripts folder:

    start_vpn.sh
    stop_vpn.sh
    check_ip.sh


    Change permissions to 755 using the FTP tool by right clicking on the scripts while on the receiver or in telnet:

    Code
    chmod 755 /etc/openvpn/*_vpn


    Code
    chmod 755 /etc/openvpn/check_ip


    Move the scripts from /etc/openvpn to /usr/scripts, do this by FTP (download from one folder then move to the new location) or use telnet:

    Code
    mv /etc/openvpn/start_vpn /usr/scripts//start_vpn.sh


    Code
    mv /etc/openvpn/stop_vpn /usr/scripts//stop_vpn.sh


    Code
    mv /etc/openvpn/check_ip.sh /usr/scripts/check_ip.sh

    k pal have don't that but will try again thanks
