OpenVPN User Manager 1.6.6.0
The OpenVPN User Manager is designed to make viewing and managing your OpenVPN server
painless. This is the successor to the OpenVPN Status Viewer. This new version uses
the management console of OpenVPN as opposed to reading the status file.
If you have any problems with this program please
send us an email.
Features:
- General information about users
- Instant search of users, servers, logs and time blocks
- Tracking of users, collects connection/disconnection times and bytes sent/received.
- Ability to 'Kill' users from the application
- Custom log file creator (you can make your own templates for data logs)
- OpenVPN User Manager can now use the Management console to receive all information
- Pie Chart of user's upload and download.
- Ability to switch between a Management connection or a status file to update users
How to setup
You must set the management option in your OpenVPN configuration file.
An example:
management 192.168.0.10 5555 pass.txt
This will start the management console on interface 192.168.0.10 with port 5555
and will search the first line of pass.txt for a password.
[Quote from documentation]
--management IP port [pw-file]
Enable a TCP server on IP:port to handle daemon management functions. pw-file, if
specified, is a password file (password on first line) or "stdin" to prompt from
standard input. The password provided will set the password which TCP clients will
need to provide in order to access management functions.
The management interface
provides a special mode where the TCP management link can operate over the tunnel
itself. To enable this mode, set IP = "tunnel". Tunnel mode will cause the management
interface to listen for a TCP connection on the local VPN address of the TUN/TAP
interface.
