Where does one begin to setup the server side of Openvpn. IT is installed, but after that I am lost

Once you install the openvpn App, you need to setup a client. The server side is setup automatically.

There is limited guidance in the Amahi wiki.

I made the purchase on http://www.amahi.org/apps/openvpn but there no sw to download into my headless HDA server. I thought the purchase will let me download the server sw then I can install it on the local HDA server. Am I confused about the process? Thx.

Once you purchase the app, you will need to go to your HDA dashboard, Apps tab and it should appear there for installation.

Purchasing of apps occurs on the web site, but the actual install is done on the HDA.

Hope that helps.

Thanks very much for the explanation. It took a while for turning my head around as I was thinking of downloading the OpenVPN app then install it on the local server and didn't think that it's actually installed by the script.

Glad it makes sense now.
