However from a security standpoint we strongly recommend against relying solely a username and password for authentication. For example, you could instead use a shared certificate/key file for all users, along with a username and password. Instead, consider using the instructions here to deploy the Viscosity application with settings/license data, and then have the user download their VPN connection separately (for example from a web portal) or use Viscosity's Import From Server feature.Īn alternative is to change your OpenVPN setup to no longer rely on unique per-user certificate/key files. If that user does not have Admin rights to install Viscosity, you will need to push configuration files by other means, for example via Group Policy.
You require a few things in order to bundle Viscosity for Windows:
Viscosity has been designed so it can be bundled with pre-configured connections and preferences so you can distribute a single installer, ready to go to your clients and customers, friends or family.
