Comodo TrustConnect - Linux Configuration Guide

The following options are available for Linux users:

Download and Install the TrustConnect OpenVPN Client

To connect to the TrustConnect service you must first download and install the TrustConnect OpenVPN client software.

  • Download the TrustConnect OpenVPN client for Linux. Click here to download the client directly.
  • Using the RPM package

    If you are using a Linux distribution which supports RPM packages (SuSE, Fedora, Redhat, etc.), it's best to install using this mechanism. You can build your own binary RPM file:

    rpmbuild -tb openvpn-[version].tar.gz

    Once you have the RPM file, you can install it with:

    rpm -ivh openvpn-[details].rpm

    Installing OpenVPN from a binary RPM package has these dependencies:
    openssl, lzo, pam. LZO library can be downloaded here.
  • Without the RPM package

    If you are using Debian, Gentoo, or a non RPM based Linux distribution, use your distribution specific packaging mechanism such as 'apt-get' on Debian or 'emerge' on Gentoo. It is also possible to install OpenVPN on Linux using the universal ./configure method.

    First expand the .tar.gz file:

    tar -xfz openvpn-[version].tar.gz

    Then cd to the top level directory and type:

    ./configure
    make
    make install
