Not for Linux! Wtf, almost all Nas are running on Linux, routers are running on linux, Raspberry runs on Linux, etc&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not gone explain how to install <a href=\"https:\/\/openvpn.net\/\">OpenVpn<\/a> on your device, there are enough tutorials on the net for the device you have to explain that. This post will only help you with the required OpenVpn files for Tweaknews.<\/p>\n<p>I did some &#8220;reverse&#8221; engineering with the Windows app and luckily they are using OpenVpn as base for the app.<br \/>\nIf you install the windows app all required info can be found in the <em>c:\\Program Files (x86)\\TweakNews\\OpenVPN\\<\/em> directory.<br \/>\nThe <em>openvpn.config<\/em> and <em>tweaknews.crt<\/em> file are there, you don&#8217;t need more to get OpenVpn working.<br \/>\nTo make it easier I have combined those 2 files to TweakNews.ovpn for easy importing the settings in Openvpn, you can download it below.<\/p>\n<p>In this file you find on line 3 the Vpn server where you will connect to, in this case to the server in The Netherlands.<br \/>\nTo find out ip addresses for other country&#8217;s, run the Tweaknews app ones on a Windows desktop and check the openvpn.config file. Share you country and Ip address in the comment below for other users.<\/p>\n<p>After making connection with the server it will ask for the user name and password. For the\u00a0 username you must use your TweakNet login name and add @tweaknews to it at the end, for example <strong>tw1234567@tweaknews<\/strong>. Password is the same as you always use with your Tweaknews account.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; 8 March 2020 deprecated Tweaknews switched to another vpn provider, Privado.
