Anyway, to have Witopia work on a Synology DSM 4 NAS with OpenVPN/SSL one must manually edit the config file within the Synology NAS. | |
As an outline, we're going to create an OpenVPN connection by editing the config files Synology DSM 4 makes. | |
Requires: | |
- Synology NAS with DSM 4 | |
- Witopia account & download the "Raw" files as a ZIP from Witopia's My Dashboard | |
- SSH enabled on your Synology DSM | |
If you don't have the above done, this process will not make sense/will not be valid. | |
Okay: | |
1. Create your OpenVPN profile in DSM via Control Panel>VPN the best you can. Use the CNXX.crt file as your certificate from the RAW zip file.(I assume you now have only one profile setup in DSM) | |
2. SSH into your Synology NAS with root user (password should be the same as admin) | |
3. Navigate to the OpenVPN config folder: | |
/usr/syno/etc/synovpnclient/openvpn | |
4. Use cp to copy your config file to a share location, the config file should look something like client_XX (copy to a share folder your computer can access) | |
5. Edit the config file on your computer by copying the contents of Witopia's SampleConfig.txt in the RAW zip. Overwrite anything which was in the original file from your DSM. | |
6. Copy the newly edited file back to the DSM | |
7. Copy all CRT & KEY files from the Witopia RAW.zip to your Synology's OpenVPN config folder as well | |
8. Go to the DSM VPN control panel (in your web browser) & click connect. Done! | |
Note: This may be obvious to some, but not for others; saving the profile in the DSM VPN panel will undo your work to the config file. So if prompted to save, press cancel. You should now only use the connect/disconnect button in that panel. | |
The above worked for me. Good luck! | |
