In this video I set up OpenVPN Access Server in an Ubuntu 26.04 VM. I show how DCO (Data Channel Offload) closes the speed gap with WireGuard, then create user groups with access rules so each user only reaches the services they need. This video is sponsored by OpenVPN. All thoughts and experiences are my own. 🔗 Links - OpenVPN Access Server: https://openvpn.net/access-server - Access Server install docs: https://openvpn.net/as-docs/installation-troubleshooting.html#situation--idon-t-want-to-use-your-linux-installation-script--how-can-i-install-it-manually- - CloudConnexa: https://openvpn.net/cloud-vpn/ 📌 Things to know before you start DCO needs the kernel's OVPN driver. That driver isn't in Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, so use 26.04. I had to use a VM because an LXC hit tunneling issues. If your ISP doesn't allow port forwarding (CG-NAT, or carrier-grade NAT), this setup won't work. Forward ports 443 and 1194 to your Access Server. I had to lower the MTU (maximum transmission unit) from 1420 to 1350 to keep connections stable. The free Access Server license includes 2 connections. CloudConnexa, OpenVPN's cloud-delivered ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access) service, offers up to 5 free seats. ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 Local-only vs remote access 00:55 What is DCO (Data Channel Offload)? 01:58 Ubuntu 24.04 vs 26.04 DCO gotcha 02:27 Setup notes: VM vs LXC, service vs Docker 02:58 What we'll cover 03:43 Demo: admin profile with full access 05:00 Demo: media user (Plex only) 06:03 Demo: infrastructure user (Dockhand only) 06:58 Installing OpenVPN Access Server 09:59 Finding the admin UI and default credentials 10:55 Initial setup wizard 12:06 Changing the default admin password 13:21 Setting the server address to your WAN IP 14:08 CG-NAT warning 14:21 Adjusting the MTU 15:03 Checking the DCO setting 15:34 Port forwarding 443 and 1194 16:08 Planning user ...https://utube.ro/static/streaming-playlists/hls/00b1fb06-208e-4346-854d-89250d99f6b9/bfbc08ed-4b57-42f7-b2e1-91138896e8aa-master.m3u8https://utube.ro/videos/embed/15YNvXHwRvMtjijeJyHQLr1559012026-09-29T12:37:53.236ZDB TechDBTechDocker tutorialYESOpenSourceNOhttps://utube.ro/w/dYvdBj1HBTA1sFiqW8NsGe2026-10-09T15:15:47.456Zhttps://utube.ro/lazy-static/thumbnails/6e234153-f64e-4450-b7d9-084af03e8af0.webpxLights and the McGonagill 2026 Halloween Light ShowThis is our annual Light Show for Halloween.

The GMKtec EVO-X3This is a somewhat strange one, but we found a local AI node based on the GMKtec EVO-X3 that costs less than what we are paying for just 128GB of server memory these days.
