Upgrading is relatively easy because the OpenVPN Access Server is just a Debian package that runs on Ubuntu 14. Before upgrading OpenVPN it is a good idea to update the Ubuntu 14 server itself. You can use the standard: apt-get update apt-get upgrade Next, find the latest Ubuntu package from this page:. Copy the link for the Ubuntu 14 64-bit package. The current download for the 2.0.24 version is. SSH into the appliance and run: wget dpkg -i openvpn-as-2.0.24-Ubuntu14.amd_64.deb This will upgrade the VMWare ESXi OpenVPN Virtual Appliance to the latest version. The exact wording depends on the browser used. The goal is having the link to the installation package in your copy/paste buffer. Next go to the command line of the appliance you want to upgrade the OpenVPN Access Server program of and use wget to download the installation package file directly to the server. The Open VPN Appliance is a great way to quickly setup a small VPN server without any of the command line hassles. They give you a two user license for free. For home use this should be enough. Their appliance comes in an OVA format which will allow you to deploy it on ESXi very easily. First let’s begin by downloading the appliance we are going to import to ESXi. I got the link from their main site: The OVA is here: Once the download is complete login to your ESXi host. Then on the top left corner open up File > and click Deploy OVF Template. Then browse to where you downloaded the OVA file. Click next on this screen it’s just an overview. Name it something of course. Choose your storage Choose how you’d like to store it, it’s usually best case to use Thin Provision because it will save you a lot of disk space. More on this in another article. Leave the defaults here. Power it on and deploy. Deploying from network may take anywhere from 20 seconds to 2 minutes depending on your LAN speed. Once powered on right click the VM and choose open console. Now login here with user: root and pass: openvpnas agree to their terms Then choose the defaults for all these options if you want the default ports to be used (443 for vpn, 943 for admin ui, access to lan, route all traffic through to lan, route dns traffic through lan. For the last option enter no and choose a different username. Now you’ll see something this, meaning everything is done and you should browse to the webhost to get started. Of course your LAN IP will be different. Don’t forget the https as the host isn’t listening on port 80. Once at the page login with the connect feature and it will allow you to download the OpenVPN client and the profile! Install the client downloaded Now in your taskbar you should have the client running like so Other things to note: The profile downloaded is for my LAN IP because I browsed to the LAN address (my server won’t have the webserver NAT’d because I like obscurity. Make sure you either give the device a static IP, or assign it a DHCP reservation on your server (probably your home router). Google how to do this.
