Does anyone have experience with setting up an OpenVPN in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS? I am trying to set one up and it is proving to be hard as F*CK!! If anyone can help me with this it would be much appreciated. Here are some things I have done as to give you and idea of where I stand:

I have attempted to run in from the GUI:
VPN Connections -> Config VPN. (Also Universe repository is enabled)
- I have LZO data compressions enabled.
-TCP is check, my vpn is through a TCP w/ port forwarding. However, I may have this configured wrong

I have also attempted it from the terminal, here are the commands that I ran:
sudo apt-get install openvpn sudo apt-get install openssl sudo apt-get install nano mkdir /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/ cp -r /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/easy-rsa/2.0/* /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/ edit /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/vars cd /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa$ ./clean-all /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa$ ./build-ca

Error I get after ./clean-all mkdir: cannot create directory `/etc/easy-rsa/keys': No such file or directory
Error I get after ./build-ca ./build-ca: 8: ./build-ca: /etc/easy-rsa/pkitool: not found

I found a document stating that I need to move the pkitool file, however, I do not know where I should put it without messing anything up.

Thanks in advance for the help!
