This article shows you how to log into our VPN network without using the terminal. You may find this helpful, if you are not very familiar with command lines. This method is by far more convenient. We will use a VPN Plugin called network-manager.
Installation
Open up a terminal of your choice (Ctrl + T) and install OpenVPN Network Manager by tying the folowing line:
sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn-gnome
As alternative to the command line login, the recent network manager allows a convenient gui configuration of the vpn access.
This tutorial describes the setup using the GNOME desktop environment. Uninty aka Ubuntu should be similar.
Install Packages
You will need some packages not installed by default:
sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn-gnome
