How to run openvpn in LXC container

For running openvpn server (or client) in CT you need to create tun (tap?) device.

In lxc config of container add line above. In proxmox we can find configs in /etc/pve/local/lxc/

lxc.cgroup.devices.allow: c 10:200 rwm

Then [re]start container and create tun device inside it. You can login into container or use proxmox tool pct:


pct exec 100 mkdir -p /dev/net
pct exec 100 mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200
pct exec 100 chmod 600 /dev/net/tun
