  "github_readme_excerpt": "openfortivpn\n============\n\nopenfortivpn is a client for PPP+TLS VPN tunnel services.\nIt spawns a pppd process and operates the communication between the gateway and\nthis process.\n\nIt is compatible with Fortinet VPNs.\n\nUsage\n-----\n\n```shell\nman openfortivpn\n```\n\nExamples\n--------\n\n* Simply connect to a VPN:\n  ```shell\n  openfortivpn vpn-gateway:8443 --username=foo\n  ```\n\n* Connect to a VPN using an authentication realm:\n  ```shell\n  openfortivpn vpn-gateway:8443 --username=foo --realm=bar\n  ```\n\n* Store password securely with a pinentry program:\n  ```shell\n  openfortivpn vpn-gateway:8443 --username=foo --pinentry=pinentry-mac\n  ```\n\n* Connect with a user certificate and no password:\n  ```shell\n  openfortivpn vpn-gateway:8443 --username= --password= --user-cert=cert.pem --user-key=key.pem\n  ```\n\n* Connect using SAML login:\n  ```shell\n  openfortivpn vpn-gateway:8443 --saml-login\n  ```\n\n* Don\u0027t set IP routes and don\u0027t add VPN nameservers to `/etc/resolv.conf`:\n  ```shell\n  openfortivpn vpn-gateway:8443 -u foo --no-routes --no-dns --pppd-no-peerdns\n  ```\n\n* Using a configuration file:\n  ```shell\n  openfortivpn -c /etc/openfortivpn/my-config\n  ```\n\n  With `/etc/openfortivpn/my-config` containing:\n  ```ini\n  host = vpn-gateway\n  port = 8443\n  username = foo\n  set-dns = 0\n  pppd-use-peerdns = 0\n  # X509 certificate sha256 sum, trust only this one!\n  trusted-cert = e46d4aff08ba6914e64daa85bc6112a422fa7ce16631bff0b592a28556f993db\n  ```\n\n* For the full list of config options, see the `CONFIGURATION` section of\n  ```shell\n  man openfortivpn\n  ```\n\nSmartcard\n---------\n\nSmartcard support needs `openssl pkcs engine` and `opensc` to be installed.\nThe pkcs11-engine from libp11 needs to be compiled with p11-kit-devel installed.\nCheck [#464](https://github.com/adrienverge/openfortivpn/issues/464) for a discussion\nof known issues in this area.\n\nBuilding on Fedora since [this\nupdate](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/openssl/c/13b583a535e62d12521cfeb5088a68e5811eb6e6?branch=rawhide)\nwi",
