QUESTION
I have a Powershell script that I am successfully using to get the decrypted OpenVPN Password stored in Registry.
This is the script that successfully fetches the stored OpenVPN Password from registry that too as decrypted string:
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-07 at 01:21Currently the username is stored unencrypted. Just decode it as Unicode. This may change in future versions. For encrypted data, the call to Unprotect() would take $entropy as the second argument, not $username.
QUESTION
Currently, you have to manually connect to a remote database to extract info via an openvpn
connection openvpn-gui.exe
to extract the info and disconnect after each extraction job.
Connection is authenticated by a config.ovpn
file stored locally.
Is there a way to automate the (connect > extract data > disconnect) process?
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Oct-28 at 03:47Managed to solve this issue...
Log in to your openvpn server domain via browser (e.g. https://12.345.678.999/)
Download Connection Profile "Yourself (autologin profile)". File usually named "client.ovpn"
Paste "client.ovpn" file in "C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config"
From openvpn-gui.exe desktop icon, import file and direct it to "client.ovpn"
- Create 2 notepad files with the following commands and save as batch file (xxx.bat)
ovpn_connect.bat
QUESTION
I've been trying to get a PowerShell command to create a shortcut working in a batch file but can't get it to actually put the quotes I need in the shortcut. I've used this command in other batch files just fine, but the quotes are messing it up. I've tried "", """, """", ", ", \
", `", and pretty much every variation I can think of and nothing has worked. I need the shortcut to be this:
"C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\bin\openvpn-gui.exe" --connect "mullvad.ovpn"
And here's what I've been trying, of course with the numerous variations:
powershell "$s=(New-Object -COM WScript.Shell).CreateShortcut('C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp\OpenVPN GUI.lnk');$s.TargetPath='"C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\bin\openvpn-gui.exe" --connect "mullvad.ovpn"';$s.Save()"
But it either just creates a shortcut to this:
"C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\bin\openvpn-gui.exe --connect mullvad_us_chi.ovpn"
or, more often, it errors because the syntax is wrong with my various attempts. So how do I get PowerShell to do what I want here?
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Mar-07 at 01:46Your main issue is that you aren't correctly creating a shortcut.
In order to do so, you should first of all use an additional property. Your TargetPath
should be the executable, and the rest, its Arguments
:
Then your command should look a little more like this:
QUESTION
I want my OpenVPN to automatically connect on startup, but only if I am not at home. With some help of this community I was able to put together a batch script, that is supposed to do so, but it keeps throwing the error "-connect" could not be parsed as an argument because no "--" could be found, but there is a "--". Where is my mistake?
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Nov-03 at 21:00After a little research, I found that the problem was the "Task Scheduler". So, no problem after the fix, but this is not important for this question.
