Hi everyone
I am upgrading my internet, getting rid of a vhome server or two.
I have hired a vps.It basic linode one.

On there, I have installed openvpn & pihole, for privacy & security.
I went through steps to secure it, like configuring ssh, the ufw firewall & fail2ban.

The process created some ovpn files for my gadgets, phone, PC, laptops and my truenas machine.
So how do I get the file imported to truenas.
There are various certificated, technical info and keys in the file.

Do they need to be setup individually.
I am stumped.

Oh and I am not looking to have a network wide vpn at home, just the devices I want to.
Also am am not looking to run a home vpn, where you need to open a port & mess around with dynamic DNS.
Also defintely do not trust the cloud storage servers. The vps will just be moving data to/from truenas & devices.

It is about saving power/money, so just have the minimal machines on I need.

I need help with this one.
Is there a guide on maybe youtube or somewhere?

Useful info appreciated.
Thanks
