Hi Trisha, <br> <br>I’m having a bit of a hard time understanding your specific use case and what you mean by connecting to the droplet for outside users.
i have a client that has multiple users in different location using my application which use CubeSQL database server. I want to CubeSQL database server in the droplet along with images. Then i want them to connect to droplet using OpenVPN to see the images from my application and data from the same place. <br> <br>I already manage to install OpenVPN on the server and TunnelBlick on the Mac. I manage to get connected earlier but i got the error about “If OpenVPN is connected to the server but your IP address does not change”
