Consider the following tutorial if you wish to set up Ivacy on Fedora 31 using the OpenVPN protocol:
- Before beginning to set up OpenVPN on a device with Fedora, you need a premium Ivacy account and the required OpenVPN configuration files from here. The OpenVPN configuration files can be obtained from the link below using any browser.
- A new prompt will appear. Check the Save File box and click OK. The files are going to be available in your Downloads directory.
- Go to your Downloads directory, right-click the ZIP archive, and select Extract Here.
- The next step is to install the config files, which will require sudo privilege. Copy and paste the contents of the Zip file to directories that override Selinux, such as /etc/pki and /opt.
Follow the guidelines below when Selinux doesn’t allow Network-Manager to access certificate files that are needed by OpenVPN:
• Click Activities at the top left of the screen and type Terminal in the search field to open it.
• To copy the extracted files to /opt/ partition, you will first have to change your directory to Downloads. Run the following command
Cd Downloads/
Enter command syntax : sudo cp -rp <sourcepath_to_file> <destination>
sudo cp -rp New+OVPN+Files /opt/
Change permission for the OpenVPN files and certificate to 644 so that everyone has access privilege
Enter command syntax : sudo chmod 644 <path_to_files/*>sudo chmod 644 New+OVPN+Files/*
- Now, follow these steps:
• Click the Network Connection icon
• Go to Wired Connected and select Wireless Settings - Click the + icon to add a VPN connection and select the Import from File option.
- Go to the newly created directory with config files in the Opt folder. Select the file with .ovpn extension, and click the Open button.
- Now, use the following settings:
• Name: German-TCP (Or you can use your preferred connection name as well)
• Type: Choose Password from the drop-down menu
• User name: Your Ivacy user name
• Password: Your Ivacy password
Once done, click the Folder icon next to CA Certificate and add the ca.crt.crt file. Hit the Apply buttonViola! You are now connected.
