Hello everyone,

I wondered if openvpn works with mailinabox. I searched but didn’t find any results about that. So i decided to try. Installed [pritunl](http://pritunl.com/) for vpn. It uses openvpn but gives you amazing admin panel. Better than openvpn access server. I want to say, it works like a charm.  
Only you have to give access to ports. Pritunl uses 9700 for its admin panel. Also you need to give access for vpn port.  
You can do them with

> ufw allow portnumber
