→Connection Instructions
You should now have a VPN named Hacksburg. Click the network icon in taskbar tray, click Hacksburg, and connect with the provided username and password.
==== Linux (and friends) ====
===== Setup =====
Install <code>strongswan</code>. If you use NetworkManager (Ubuntu), you can use these instructions [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Openswan_L2TP/IPsec_VPN_client_setup#NetworkManager] and fill in the following values:
VPN Server IP: 216.252.204.76
VPN Username: Email board@hacksburg.org to request
VPN Password: Email board@hacksburg.org to request
If you do not use NetworkManager, add the following rows to your <code>ipsec.conf</code> file. On Arch Linux, this file is located at <code>/etc/ipsec.conf</code>:
conn Hacksburg
keyexchange=ikev2
dpdaction=clear
dpddelay=30s
eap_identity="max@hacksburg.org"
leftauth=esp-mschapv2
left=%defaultroute
leftsourceip=%config
right=cloud.hacksburg.org
rightauth=pubkey
rightsubnet=0.0.0.0/0
rightid=%any
rightca=<CACERT>
type=tunnel
auto=add
Where <code><CACERT></code> is replaced by the path to this file: http://hacksburg.org/Hacksburg+CA.crt . Then, create the file <code>/etc/ipsec.secrets</code> and include the following line:
<USERNAME> : EAP "<PASSWORD>"
Where the username and password are issued to you by emailing board@hacksburg.org. Then, run
# ipsec auto --add Hacksburg
Then, make sure <code>/etc/xl2tpd/xl2tpd.conf</code> has the following contents:
lac Hacksburg]
lns = 216.252.204.76
ppp debug = yes
pppoptfile = /etc/ppp/options.l2tpd.client
length bit = yes
And <code>/etc/ppp/options.l2tpd.client</code> has the following contents:
ipcp-accept-local
ipcp-accept-remote
refuse-eap
require-mschap-v2
noccp
noauth
idle 1800
mtu 1410
mru 1410
defaultroute
usepeerdns
debug
connect-delay 5000
name <USERNAME>
password <PASSWORD>
Again using the username and password you received from the board.
===== Start VPN =====
You can start the VPN by running:
# systemctl start strongswan
# swanctl -i -c Hacksburg
