How to set up a vpn? (Solved)

[OscarTalks]

OK, after further investigation...

In Xenial the VPN fails to load because /dev/net/tun does not exist.
This is because the tun kernel module is not loaded.

If you are running with a save file/folder, use boot manager to add the module named tun and reboot. VPN should now complete activation.

If you are running without save, open a terminal and enter modprobe tun before activating VPN

In Artful the situation is the same, tun module does not auto-load.
I used my Xenial openvpn package in Artful, enabled the tun module and the VPN worked.

Thanks for your passion with the puppy linux project, Oscar. I have followed your work for years.
The vpn is now fully functional. Thank you!
