But, configuring the service to run properly through the command line interface is a little tricky, especially for those who do not have enough experience in maintaining an Ubuntu server. In this step, we will show you how to install the OpenVPN server using a bash script.<\/p>\n<p>To start this, we need to download the bash script from GitHub.<\/p>\n<pre># cd \/opt\r\n# wget https:\/\/raw.githubusercontent.com\/Nyr\/openvpn-install\/master\/openvpn-install.sh -O openvpn-install.sh<\/pre>\n<p>The installation script is downloaded and saved as \/opt\/openvpn-install.sh. Let&#8217;s make the file executable then run it.<\/p>\n<pre># chmod +x openvpn-install.sh\r\n# .\/openvpn-install.sh<\/pre>\n<p>Now, the OpenVPN installation will start, and you will be prompted with a few questions.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-43596 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/openvpn-start-install.webp\" alt=\"openvpn start install\" width=\"877\" height=\"389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/openvpn-start-install.webp 877w, https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/openvpn-start-install-300x133.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/openvpn-start-install-150x67.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/openvpn-start-install-768x341.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 877px) 100vw, 877px\" \/><\/p>\n<pre>Welcome to this OpenVPN road warrior installer!\r\n\r\nWhich protocol should OpenVPN use?\r\n1) UDP (recommended)\r\n2) TCP\r\nProtocol [1]: 1<\/pre>\n<p>You can choose the protocol you like, but UDP protocol is preferred.
