Question
Running a VPN ( OpenVPN) on Ubuntu 32 bit version
Hello dear members,
Since yesterday, I have been trying to install open VPN server on my droplet in vain.
This is what I wanted to with it.
I wanted to have a VPN that can allow me to access different website with different IP addresses.
However, I’m not sure how to implement this. I’m a first year IT student(I’m yet to master a few tricks).
I was able to install openvpn and RSA, but I was** not able to extract **server.conf file to edit on a text editor using
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install openvpn easy-rsa
The command I used to extract the file:
gunzip -c /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files/server.conf.gz > /etc/openvpn/server.conf
Output: bash: / : is a directory.
My question is where does the extracted file go? How can access it?
How can I implement the VPN such that I can use a new ip of a droplet of my choice?
How can I add new users with/without root access?
which plan should I use for better speeds?
I’m running windows operating system
Sorry for my poor grammar.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

It looks like you mistyped the command. That command is correct. Double-check the paths?
Thanks gp+gigitalocean for your quick response.
After running the command, the output is:
OUTPUT: NO such file/directory.
Could the problem be because I’m running windows 7 and not Ubuntu on my machine?
And if that is the problem, should I install Ubuntu or there is a workaround to that?
Thanks
Thanks
