πŸ’– openvpn3-config-dump β€” OpenVPN 3 Linux: Configuration Dump πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to openvpn3-config-dump(1) β€” this is the manual page for it, and I'm gonna walk you through it like we're texting at 2am. no cap. ✨


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

openvpn3 config-dump -o DBUS-PATH | --path DBUS-PATH | --config CONFIG-NAME [--json]
openvpn3 config-dump -h | --help

like, pick a way to point at your config and go πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so the whole thing here? It dumps the contents of the OpenVPN configuration profile that was imported to the terminal. that's it, that's the vibe. πŸ’–

⚠️ important: it will not carry any information added via openvpn3 config-manage. so if you tweaked stuff there, don't come looking for it here. it's simply not in this dump, periodt.

and listen β€” if the configuration profile has been locked down via openvpn3 config-acl, users who were granted access to this configuration profile will not be able to see the contents of the configuration profile. πŸ”’ the lockdown is real and it ate. not even the approved girlies get to peek. πŸ’€


✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -h, --help β€” prints usage and help details straight to your terminal. the "help me bestie" button 🫢
  • -o DBUS-PATH, --path DBUS-PATH β€” the D-Bus configuration path of the configuration you wanna show. you can find this in openvpn3 configs-list. it's giving "look up the address first, then come back" πŸ“
  • --config-path DBUS-PATH β€” it's literally just an alias for --path. same energy, different name 🌈
  • -c CONFIG-NAME, --config CONFIG-NAME β€” use this instead of --path when you'd rather hand over the configuration profile name. the available configuration names? also found via openvpn3 configs-list. so yes, that command is the main character here twice πŸ‘‘
  • --json β€” gives you JSON formatting of the output instead of text/plain. for when you want your data structured and iconic πŸ”₯
