Let's start by updating our apt cache and installing both openvpn and easy-rsa, which we'll use to set up certificates. Intel and SSD backed VPS servers and Tier-1 network connections give you the performance you need, for less.

Run OpenVPN on an SSD VPS for under $8/month! Don't overpay to get the resources you need for your VPN. See our SSH keys tutorial for more information.

In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps to install OpenVPN on Ubuntu 16.04 virtual private server (VPS). Of course, we think that's a great option.

In the weeks since, we saw a massive new interest in virtual private networks (VPNs). government made significant changes to rules that dictate how ISPs can package and sell data about their customers.

Note: Ubuntu 16.04 is no longer the most up-to-date release, consider installing OpenVPN on Ubuntu 18.04 as this is the latest stable release.
