<chunmei> where do you put this sepia.ovpn file?
2025-01-10T00:08:03.462Z
<Matt Benjamin> well do the installation of the openvpn server and it's tunnel driver; then this file (and the cert and key files, as shown) go in the config directory selected by the installer
2025-01-10T00:09:20.538Z
<Matt Benjamin> or, I guess, cacert, key, and tls key--all that comes with the sepia credentials bundle, or it did;  I used my old one, but substituted the cacert that was generated last week
2025-01-10T00:10:06.196Z
<Matt Benjamin> the options here go with the 2.1+ version--earlier versions used that bf-cbc line, it's no longer permitted so commented out
2025-01-10T00:10:48.471Z
<Matt Benjamin> then you would run the openvpn gui, and can from the app icon, right click and select "sepia" to run
2025-01-10T00:11:04.250Z
<chunmei> I download OpenVPN-2.6.12-I001-amd64 and installed, is this what you mean to install?
2025-01-10T00:11:06.225Z
<Matt Benjamin> (presuming you save this as "sepia.ovpn")
2025-01-10T00:11:10.508Z
<Matt Benjamin> yes, that's it
2025-01-10T00:11:20.610Z
<Matt Benjamin> it should match fine
2025-01-10T00:11:59.608Z
<Matt Benjamin> it looks like I am running the config from my user home directory (same as the path in those lines in the file)
2025-01-10T00:12:12.705Z
<Matt Benjamin> it may be possible to run it from system32, I'm not sure--old versions did
2025-01-10T00:12:25.466Z
<Zack Cerza> looks like the jenkins queue is just very backed up: 114 in the queue atm, which is more than i remember having seen before
2025-01-10T00:12:46.808Z
<Matt Benjamin> but you'll know the right path to the config directory because the installer will I believe create it
2025-01-10T00:13:01.748Z
<chunmei> how to get the cert and key files?
2025-01-10T00:13:19.141Z
<Matt Benjamin> you need to download the sepia vpn bundle
2025-01-10T00:13:42.543Z
<Matt Benjamin> your key is the ssh key you generated when you set up your sepia creds
2025-01-10T00:14:05.872Z
<Matt Benjamin> you do that following the basic sepia instructions--it's not windows specific
2025-01-10T00:14:43.278Z
<Matt Benjamin> if you had this working from linux somewhere, you have that stuff, unless you're upgrading the cert that was regenerated
2025-01-10T00:15:36.702Z
<chunmei> I just reference <https://wiki.sepia.ceph.com/doku.php?id=vpnaccess> and which part is download sepia vpn bundle?
2025-01-10T00:15:45.343Z
<Matt Benjamin> yes
2025-01-10T00:16:17.060Z
<Matt Benjamin> if you've never used sepia before, you have to follow the instructions to generate a key pair, and share the public key, and the ceph team needs to set up your account
2025-01-10T00:16:38.082Z
<Matt Benjamin> when it's ready, you can authenticate, and this workflow will work
2025-01-10T00:17:21.983Z
<Matt Benjamin> thanks, zack
2025-01-10T00:18:59.749Z
<chunmei> do need download sudo wget <https://filedump.ceph.com/sepia-vpn-client.tar.gz> to my windows system?
2025-01-10T00:19:14.806Z
<Matt Benjamin> you need to get it and extract the contents, yes
2025-01-10T00:19:31.072Z
<Matt Benjamin> you need to place the files in there, plus your secret key, into the locations named in the vpn config file
2025-01-10T00:42:23.653Z
<chunmei> seems I can't run ./sepia/new-client USER@HOST in windows system.
2025-01-10T01:40:43.663Z
<chunmei> I just install python into windows and try to turn that script again.
2025-01-10T01:54:41.185Z
<Æmerson> Is something tying up all our jammy hosts?
2025-01-10T02:22:22.701Z
<chunmei> new-client user@host create secret  secret.hash  secrets.xxx.tar.gz and I copy them to openvpn/config
2025-01-10T02:30:35.738Z
<chunmei> I think  "sepia_secret" in your sepia.ovpn file is the secret file created by new-client.
2025-01-10T02:31:12.739Z
<Matt Benjamin> I might be mixing it up with red hat's vpn đŸ™‚
2025-01-10T02:31:27.740Z
<Matt Benjamin> I do think that the ceph team needs to set things up, however
2025-01-10T02:31:43.695Z
<chunmei> what are sepia_new_ca.crt and sepia_tlsauth?
2025-01-10T02:31:47.285Z
<Matt Benjamin> does new-client not create a public key?
2025-01-10T02:32:17.578Z
<chunmei> it just create secret(private key) and secret (public) I think.
2025-01-10T02:32:32.630Z
<chunmei> secrete.hash is public
2025-01-10T02:32:42.315Z
<Matt Benjamin> those are renamed versions of the sepia ca certificate file, and a pregenerated key that at least used to be distributed with the bundle, and apparently still works.  you could try commenting that line out
2025-01-10T02:33:01.268Z
<Matt Benjamin> (the tlsauth one)
2025-01-10T02:33:56.177Z
<chunmei> there is ca and tlsauth file in extracted sepia tar.
2025-01-10T02:34:00.968Z
<Matt Benjamin> you can name them whatever you like;  I have several vpn client setups on my system
2025-01-10T02:34:06.868Z
<Matt Benjamin> so it's the tlsauth file
2025-01-10T02:34:15.679Z
<Matt Benjamin> it just has a different name in my environment
2025-01-10T02:34:44.458Z
<chunmei> ok, I will use those files in sepia tar bundle. Thanks!
2025-01-10T02:34:50.856Z
<Matt Benjamin> sure, yw

<David Galloway> Looks like we could afford to shuffle some resources around.  I'll ask AdamK to take a look at this Sunday.
