How do i change ownership of: "'/var/etc/openvpn/client1.up'"
-
Hello!
I got my PrivateInternetAccess VPN working with OpenVPN. I am getting this WARNING though: "WARNING: file '/var/etc/openvpn/client1.up' is group or others accessible ".
How do i change the ownership of the file to only the root user?
I am currently navigated to: Diagnostics -> Edit File -> /var/etc/openvpn/client1.up
My device: Pfsense SG-1000
Thanks guys! 8)

How exactly do you have your client setup in pfsense, I have a client connection to a vpn server that I use for policy routing and there is not client.up file - there is clientX.inferface file and etc.. But no .up file
Bu you would change ownership of the file just like with any other linux/bsd os - chown and set the group ownership how ever you want it.
So its working, your just getting that warning where? In the openvpn log?

I followed this setup guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybcc-OBi7kQ&t=1081s&list=WL&index=314
Its just a warning - and since i am the only user i guess its not that critical.
How do i access a terminal to chance those permissions though? Can you launch one in the webui?Thanks for the answer! :)

Have you tried Diagnostics -> Command Prompt
ls -la /var/etc/openvpn
chmod 0600 /var/etc/openvpn/client1.up
