Suggest you install OpenVPN Access Server instead
Instead of installing OpenVPN, I suggest that you install OpenVPN Access Server. The license for 2 concurrent users is free. I have OpenVPN Access Server on a 128 MB OpenVZ VPS running Ubuntu 14.04.1 and it works well. GL

Agreed. Install OpenVPN Access Server. It has a GUI admin to manage the server. Some instructions for Debian: http://techneuroti.com/how-to-instal...r-on-your-vps/
Something missing from that tutorial is that OpenVPN AS creates the user "openvpn" so you'll need to set the password before logging into the admin panel, i.e. passwd openvpn

We use this on Ubuntu:
Code:Enable TUN/TAP cd /home wget https://raw.github.com/Nyr/openvpn-install/master/openvpn-install.sh; chmod +x openvpn-install.sh; ./openvpn-install.sh Add more users: ./openvpn-install.sh apt-get update apt-get upgrade For 32bit OS wget http://swupdate.openvpn.org/as/openvpn-as-1.8.5-Ubuntu12.i386.deb; dpkg -i openvpn-as-1.8.5-Ubuntu12.i386.deb For 64bit OS wget http://swupdate.openvpn.org/as/openvpn-as-1.8.5-Ubuntu12.amd_64.deb; dpkg -i openvpn-as-1.8.5-Ubuntu12.amd_64.deb passwd openvpn Now you can access the admin panel by visiting https://yourip:943/admin

Successfully installed. But it seems TUN/ TAP is disabled by RamNode (whose VPS I use). How to get them enabled ? Thanks for all you guidance and help.

See if the option to enable TUN/TAP is in SolusVM. If not, contact RamNode.
EDIT: Posted at same time! Glad to hear everything's working.

Thanks. A small glitch while configuring the client
I got installed the open VPN client but not sure how to run it.
openvpn --version command gave --->
OpenVPN 2.3.2 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [eurephia] [MH] [IPv6] built on Feb 4 2014
PS : I use Ubuntu 14.04

Their website says
Once the openvpn package is fetched from the Internet and installed, run the client with the --version argument to make sure that it is version 2.1:
openvpn --version
OpenVPN 2.1_rc15e x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu [...]

use the following one-liner to verify if TUN support is enabled on the Debian system. if using a VPS (Virtual Private Server), some virtualization layers such as vServers and OpenVZ require TUN to be enabled on/from the host machine.
Code:test ! -c /dev/net/tun && echo openvpn requires tun support || echo tun is available
