Reset Forgotten OpenVPN Password
Budget: $10 – $30 AUD
I can reach the Azure portal and RDP into the virtual machine that hosts our OpenVPN Access Server, but the web-admin password is long gone. With full administrative rights on the VM I just need clear, step-by-step help to reset that OpenVPN credential so I can get back into the GUI.
Here’s what will make this a success for me:
• A short live session (SSH, PowerShell, or whatever you prefer) in which you walk me through the password-reset commands on the server.
• Verification that the new password works by logging in to the OpenVPN web interface together.
• A brief note of the exact commands/steps you used, so I can repeat the process in future if needed.
Everything else on the server is running fine, so please focus solely on the password reset—no need to reinstall or reconfigure OpenVPN.
