Alternatives for old macOS installations

You can use an OpenVPN client with a configuration file. We use Tunnelblick as OpenVPN client here.

  • Install Tunnelblick either from SelfService or from the Tunnelblick website: https://www.tunnelblick.net
  • Create a OpenVPN configuration file. Description: VPN - eduVPN - OpenVPN-Konfiguration erzeugen
  • Now you have to import your new configuration file. Drag this file from your downloads folder to the little Tunnelblick icon in the menu bar. Double clicking the file will work as well.
