OpenVPN working on Surface Pro - not for Iphone
«

Is there a "more" clear set of installation instructions to getting either IPSec or OpenVPN working with an Iphone? I've tried both and can't get either working. My main problem with OpenVPN is key installation/delivery (both the CA and ssl key) to the iphone; which the road warrior doesn't cover well. ANY help or clarifications to the published instructions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Kurt

Hi Kurt,
I hope I'm understanding your question correctly, but provided your OpenVPN server is set up correctly it should be not to hard to get the config file to the road warriors iPhone:
1. Install OpenVPN Connect on the iPhone
2. In OPNSense under VPN->OpenVPN->Clientexport select "File only" as Export type, export and send the resulting .ovpn file to the iPhone user by email, bluetooth or carrier pigeons.
Once on the iPhone, the .ovpn file should be available to OpenVPN connect, the CA, key and whatever else is needed is included in the file.

That worked. I missed that option and didn't know what it did.
Thanks a bunch.
