Title: New openvpn interface and socks proxy
Post by: burbilog on April 08, 2024, 01:46:39 PM
I'm very upset with 24.1 upgrade, a new openvpn interface without an option to add additional openvpn commands! I'm using local v2ray daemons for openvpn obfuscation (because of the government filterning VPN services) and new openvpn interface has neither an advanced window to specify openvpn option like this:

socks-proxy 127.0.0.1 1082

nor proxy setting. This is crazy. Old interface is going away soon and new interface is badly broken...

Any ideas how to fix other than running custom scripts and no interface?...

did you solved?
I can still see the OpenVPN advanced settings windows after the update. I don't know why you shouldn't see it.
did you tried to add the directive in the OpenVPN server config file? does it gets reset after reboot?

Hi simoneweb and burbilog. OpenVPN extra config box was removed on the new web interface for security reasons. There is not a removal date for the old config yet, but users should be migrating to the new instances in the meantime.
In cases like the one you are describing you can ask the developers to add the specific option you need.
Start a "feature request" at github https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/new/choose and fill the form.

Cheers
