[arm-allstar] Help with setting up OpenVPN

[Jeff Ackerman]

I have played with this,

https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-setup-openvpn-server-on-ubuntu-linux-14-04-or-16-04-lts/

It was about as easy as it gets, I did modify the script that generates
users on the server side to fit my needs and requirements.

This sets up the server and has examples for clients on a few different
platforms.

If your putting the server on the local network of a node you will have
more things to do to get the VPN network to talk to the local network
node.  Those instructions can be found on openvpns website.
