There are many how-to guides, but you have provided no details that would let anyone help you, and your question is unclear. Are you wanting to set up a VPN *SERVER*, or set up the CLIENT to connect to an existing server?

You haven't told us what version/distro of Linux you've installed, what desktop GUI and network manager you're using, etc.; read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature. Provide details and we can try to help

on my linux clients i use /etc/openvpn/
here i put my certs/keys from server

Thanks TB0ne
Linux version 5.1 in my system. In the meantime, I searched on Google and get some useful guide like
https://openvpn.net/community-resources/how-to/
https://www.linux.com/training-tutor...-server-linux/
https://www.purevpn.com/what-is-vpn/protocols/openvpn

They all are very helpful.

Thanks again

Please provide more details so we can guide? Where are exactly you are getting stuck in the setup process?

Yes more stats are needed to properly guide you.

Did it worked out for you?

You still haven't answered the questions. There is no "Linux 5.1", unless you mean something very, VERY old, and even then you still don't tell us what distro (Red Hat? Suse? Ubuntu??) And you still haven't said whether you want to configure a server or not.

And if you honestly want to run an openVPN server on an ANCIENT version of Linux, good luck. It probably won't even install

Install an OpenVPN client for Linux.
Login to the Access Server's Client Web Server and download the desired client config file (typically called “client. ovpn"
Run the OpenVPN client with the downloaded client config file.
