I set up OpenVPN on my server choosing UDP protocol and OpenDNS for DNS rendering. I have Tunnelblick 3.8.1 (build 5400) installed on my MacBook running High Sierra 10.13.6 OS X. I have a VPS with OpenVPN 2.4.7-1.e17 installed on a VPS with CentOS7 and TUN activated.
Tunnelblick vpn address changes how to#
I have no clue how to make these settings. I think this is probably the problem because I am pretty sure this script has left out some security settings that are probably necessary. Wget -O openvpn-install.sh & bash openvpn-install.sh I installed OpenVPN using the GitHub OpenVPN install script: I think it is probably my fault.Įventually, after a few minutes or a few tries I am able to connect to the internet, but this error message is slowing down the connection process and worries me that the connection may not be very secure. I am not sure if this is because the Great China Firewall is so good that it is causing this error or because I've messed something up. "Tunnelblick could not fetch IP address information before the connection to clientname was made." I can connect to the VPN but it takes a few tries and I inevitably end up with the error message: I need help with matching the setup of my VPS with OpenVPN Community Edition and Tunnelblick for Mac OS X.

Individuals living in China with a legitimate reason to communicate with the Internet overseas are allowed to access a VPN server overseas from China. All the Internet in China must go through a Great Firewall and most of the things that you take for granted (like Google, Facebook, NY Times) are blocked.

I am a self employed American living in China so I have to resolve this problem myself.
