DockerVPN

Automatically host an OpenVPN server inside a docker container based on Debian 9.

Requirements

  • Docker Make sure you have docker installed and accessible from the command line. To test it open a terminal and write docker -v otherwise have a look at the Docker installation

Installation

  1. Download the repository.
  2. Adapt the setup.conf file to your needs.
  • Recommended Configurations

    • Certificate Configurations

    • CA_COUNTRY="DE" (Change it to your country code)

    • CA_PROVINCE="Germany" (Change it to your country)

    • CA_CITY="Dortmund" (Change it to your city)

    • CA_ORG="MyOrg" (Change it to your organization)

    • CA_MAIL="[email protected]" (Change it to your mail)

    • VPN Configurations

    • VPN_KEYSIZE=2048 (1024:Should only be used for testing to make key generation faster. 2048:Good choice for a proper encryption. 4096:Really strong encryption which takes a long time an generation)

    • VPN_PROTO=udp (udp:Default choice. tcp:Implemented but not testes. Use lowercase for this option)

    • VPN_PORT=1194 (The port for your OpenVPN inside the container and your host)

    • VPN_DNS=DVPNHOST (DNS of your docker host or a static ip)

    • TLS_MIN_VER=1.2 (Min version of tls for client and server side)

  • You can change the other options as well but it is not recommended and tested.
  1. Make sure you have the execution right for the DockerVPN.sh or give it the rights chmod +x <USER>:<USER> DockerVPN.sh
  2. Run ./DockerVPN.sh it will guide you through the installation.

Supported OS

I have only tested it on Debain 9 (stretch) but it should not be a problem to run it on other linux distributions as long as you have a working docker installation, the whiptail package and the /den/net/tun device. It is mapped inside the docker container because it is required by OpenVPN.

For an installtion on Winodws you can have a look at this to install the TUN driver and you have to run the docker commands manually.

Docker Commands

  • Exchange the variables by the values from your setup.conf
  • Build the image: docker build -t $DOCKER_IMG_NAME .
  • Run the Container: docker run -d --name $DOCKER_CONT_NAME --sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=0 --cap-add=NET_ADMIN --device /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun -v ${PWD}/ovpn:/client-configs/files -p $VPN_PORT:$VPN_PORT/$VPN_PROTO $DOCKER_IMG_NAME:latest
  • Start/Stop the container: docker container (start/stop) $DOCKER_CONT_NAME
  • Create a client: docker exec $DOCKER_CONT_NAME ./setup.sh -c -n=$USER
  • Create a client with a password: docker exec $DOCKER_CONT_NAME ./setup.sh -c -n=$USER -p=$PASSWORD1
  • Revoke a client: docker exec $DOCKER_CONT_NAME ./setup.sh -r -n=$USER
  • List all clients: docker exec $DOCKER_CONT_NAME ./setup.sh -l
