Once OpenVPN Access Server has been installed and configured it is time to update it:
1. Go to http://openvpn.net/index.php/access-server/download-openvpn-as.html?osfamily=Ubuntu and download for Ubuntu 9 (at the time of writing, Ubuntu 9 is used as the base OS for OpenVPN AS)
wget http://swupdate.openvpn.org/as/openvpn-as-1.8.3-Ubuntu9.amd_64.deb
2. The architecture from the OVF template is 64 bit (hence the 64 bit download of the update above) now to install it simply do:
dpkg -i openvpn-as-1.8.3-Ubuntu9.amd_64.deb
And it should update straightway:
openvpnas:~# dpkg -i openvpn-as-1.8.3-Ubuntu9.amd_64.deb (Reading database ... 14835 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace openvpn-as 1.7.1-Ubuntu9 (using openvpn-as-1.8.3-Ubuntu9.amd_64.deb) ... Upgrade detected (debian)... Unpacking replacement openvpn-as ... Setting up openvpn-as (1.8.3-Ubuntu9) ... Backing up configuration and DB files to /usr/local/openvpn_as/etc/backup prior to update. Restarting openvpnas: openvpnas. openvpnas:~#
