OpenVPN Configuration Manager

Overview

This is a fixed version of the OpenVPN Hugging Face Space that works around container limitations while providing valuable OpenVPN configuration management.

Key Features

✅ Container-Compatible - No TUN device requirements ✅ Configuration Generation - Create server and client configs ✅ Certificate Scripts - Generate SSL certificates ✅ Firewall Rules - Automatic iptables configuration ✅ Complete Package - Download all files as ZIP ✅ Deployment Guide - Step-by-step instructions

What This Fixes

The original space failed with:

mknod: /dev/net/tun: Operation not permitted

This version avoids the TUN device issue by providing:

• Configuration file generation instead of direct VPN operation
• Scripts for certificate creation (run on proper servers)
• Deployment guides for production environments

Usage

1. Generate Configurations - Create OpenVPN config files
2. Security Setup - Get certificate and firewall scripts
3. Download Package - Get all files in one ZIP
4. Follow Guide - Deploy on proper server infrastructure

Production Deployment

For actual VPN functionality, deploy the generated configurations on:

• Linux servers with TUN support
• Proper network configuration
• Root/sudo access
• CAP_NET_ADMIN capability

Technical Details

• Python 3.10 based
• Gradio web interface
• No container privileges required
• Zero TUN dependencies
• Configuration-focused approach

Files Generated

• server.conf - Server configuration
• client.conf - Client configuration
• generate_certs.sh - Certificate generation
• firewall_rules.sh - Firewall setup
• DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md - Complete instructions

Note: This tool generates configurations for deployment on proper VPN servers. The actual VPN functionality requires infrastructure with appropriate network capabilities.
