Centos Linux based vpn client

Hi Group.

I downloaded the files for Remote Access from the Sophos UTM for linux. This package includes the config certs and keys.

What are your recommendations for a gui client for ssl vpn? Running Centos 7 with Gnome 3 desktop.

Thanks.
Tom

Hi,

This is for CentOS 6.8.

Install:
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
yum update
yum install openvpn -y

Cert and config:
Go to the directory where you have extracted the ZIP file. Move the content somewhere convenient. Execute the openvpn command:

openvpn --config username@fqdn.ovpn

Input your username and password, viola [:P]

Thanks, I gave it a try but 'yum update' returns a whole bunch of dependency errors. As does attempted to yum install the openvpn package.

I'll have a closer look through centos 7 packages and see if I can find it.

In the meantime, do you know how I can undo
rpm -Uvh epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

I tried -e but it says not installed.
