===== Ubuntu 12.10 64bit =====
(Not tested in 32bit but will most likely work)
If possible follow the above windows tutorial first to test that you have configured openvpn correctly for server and client.
* '''Install openvpn for network manager'''
sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn
* Create folder called e.g. "openvpn" (can be anything) in your home directory (could be any directory).
* Assuming that phpki is being used. In browser go to '''server-manger panel > certificate management''' and download the relevant client's "PCKS#12 Bundle" and place it in the "openvpn" folder.
* Go to '''server-manager panel > openvpn-bridge''' click on "Display a functional client configuration file". Copy and paste this into a text editor and save with '''.ovpn''' extension into the "openvpn" folder. Make sure user.p12 is replaced with the name of the .p12 (PCKS#12 Bundle) client file downloaded previously. Also check that the '''remote''' (gateway) is the correct server url.
* In ubuntu go to '''Network Manager > VPN Connections > Configure VPN'''. Click '''import''' then in the explorer navigate to the openvpn folder in the home directory and select the .ovpn file created previously. This should automatically load all settings into network manager.
* Add username and password of client. Private key password I believe is the same password just added but I am not certain. (This is where having tested in windows is a good idea in case it doesn't work you can debug confidently).
* As a note, when connected successfully browsing the internet may not work in tandem with being connected by vpn therefore go to '''ipv4 settings''' tab when editing the vpn connection. Add 8.8.4.4 to "Additional DNS Servers" (This is google's dns servers). More importantly click on "Routes" and check "Use this connection only for resources on its network".
