Export macOS Server Data

Jun 29, 2020 As the VPN client for Mac from Softether is not recommended, here is a third-party Softether client application you may use: Download the SoftEtherGUI app, a Softether VPN client. Unzip the file and copy the SoftEtherGUI.app to the Applications folder. Start SoftEtherGUI from your Launchpad. This post describes a real-world configuration of the free VPN server SoftEther. It shows how to set up a VPN for macOS and Windows clients on a Hyper-V Windows guest VM. Our Setup and Requirements. Our situation was as follows: Multiple Hyper-V hosts with VMs on an internal network. One VM is the VPN gateway. It is configured with two NICs.

We’re not going to import this, as it only takes a few seconds to configure new settings. Additionally, if you have outstanding services built on macOS Server, you might be able to pull this off without touching client systems. First, let’s grab which protocols are enabled, running the following from Terminal:

sudo serveradmin settings vpn:Servers:com.apple.ppp.pptp:enabled

sudo serveradmin settings vpn:Servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:enabled

Next, we’ll get the the IP ranges used so we can mimic those (or change them) in the new service:

sudo serveradmin settings vpn:Servers:com.apple.ppp.pptp:IPv4:DestAddressRanges

Now let’s grab the DNS servers handed out so those can be recreated:

sudo serveradmin settings vpn:Servers:com.apple.ppp.pptp:DNS:OfferedServerAddresses:_array_index
sudo serveradmin settings vpn:Servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:DNS:OfferedServerAddresses:_array_index


Finally, if you’re using L2TP, let’s grab the shared secret:

sudo serveradmin settings vpn:Servers:com.apple.ppp.l2tp:L2TP:IPSecSharedSecretValue

Once we have all of this information, we can configure the new server using the same settings. At this point, you can decide whether you want to dismantle the old server and setup a new one on the same IP address, or whether you’d rather just change your port forwards on your router/firewall.
Ports
Before we configure any VPN services, let’s talk about ports. The following ports need to be opened per The Official iVPN Help Docs (these are likely already open if you’re using a macOS Server to provide VPN services):

• PPTP: TCP port 1723
• L2TP: UDP ports 1701, 4500 and 500
• Enable VPN pass-through on the firewall of the server and client if needed

openvpn
There are a number of ways to get a VPN Server installed on macOS. One would be to install openvpn:

sudo port -v install openvpn2
OpenVPN has a lot of sweet options, which you can read about at openvpn.net.
SoftEther
One of the other tools Apple mentioned is SoftEther. I decided not to cover it here because it uses Wine. And I’m not a fan of Wine.
Or Use iVPN
That will require some work to get dependencies and some working with files and network settings. Another option would be to install iVPN from here, on the Mac App Store. You can install it manually as well, and if you do, you’ll need to pay separately through PayPal, which is what we’ll cover here.
Once installed, if you purchased the license separately, use the Enter Manually button to provide it.
At the Registration screen, make sure the name, email, and serial are entered exactly as you see them in the email you received.

At the Thank You screen, click OK.
At the EULA screen, click Accept assuming you accept the license agreement.
Configure iVPN
At the main screen, you’ll have a few options, which we’ll unpack here:

• Use Directory Server: Allows you to use an LDAP or Active Directory connection to provide username and passwords to the service.
• Use custom accounts: Allows you to manually enter accounts to provide username and passwords for clients to connect to the
• Shared Secret: The secret, or a second factor used with L2TP connection.
• Allow 40-bit encryption keys: Allows clients to use lower levels of encryption. Let’s not do this.
• IP Address Range: The beginning and ending IP that will be manually handed out to client computers. When configuring the range, take care not to enter a range of addresses in use by any other DHCP services on your network or you will end up with conflicts.
• Basic DNS: Allows you to configure a primary and second DNS server to send to clients via DHCP when they connect to the VPN interface.
• Advanced DNS: Allows you to configure DNS servers as well as Search Domains.
• Configure Static Routes: Allows you to specify the interface and netmask used to access a given IP.
• Export Configuration Profile: Exports a configuration profile. When imported into a Mac or iOS device, that profile automatically configures the connection to the PPTP or L2TP service you’ve setup.
• VPN Host Name: Used for the configuration profile so a client system can easily find the server w

If you configure Directory Authentication, you’ll get prompted that it might be buggy. Click OK here.
The Directory Authentication screen allows you to choose which directory services to make available to PPTP or L2TP. If the system hasn’t been authenticated to a directory server, do so using the Users & Groups” System Preference pane.
Once you’ve chosen your directory service configuration, if you require a third DNS server, click on Advanced DNS and then enter it, or any necessary search-domains. Click Done when you’re finished.
Click the log button in the upper left-hand side to see the logs for the service. This is super-helpful when you start troubleshooting client connections or if the daemon stops for no good reason (other than the fact that you’re still running a VPN service on macOS Server and so the socket can’t bind to the appropriate network port).
Finally, you can also create a static route. Static routing provides a manually-configured routing entry, rather than information from a dynamic routing traffic, which means you can fix issues where a client can’t access a given IP because it’s using an incorrect network interface to access an IP.
Once everything is configure, let’s enter the publicly accessible IP address or DNS name of the server. Client computers that install the profile will then have their connection to the server automatically configured and will be able to test the connection.
Configure Clients
If you configured the new server exactly as the old one and just forwarded ports to the new host, you might not have to do anything, assuming you’re using the same username and password store (like a directory service) on the back-end. If you didn’t, you can setup new interfaces with a profile. If you pushed out an old profile to configure those, I’d recommend removing it first if any settings need to change. To configure clients, we’ll install the new profile. When you open the profile on a client system (just double-click it to open it), you’ll see the Install dialog box. Here, click on Continue.

Because the profile isn’t signed, you’ll then get prompted again (note: you can sign the profile using another tool, like an MDM or Apple Configurator). Click Continue.
Then enter the username that will be used to connect to the VPN and click the Install button.
The Profile can then be viewed and manually removed if needed.
Click on the new iVPN entry in the Network System Preference pane. Here, you can enable
Now that it’s easy, let’s click the VPN icon in the menu bar and then click on Connect iVPN to test the connection.
Once clients can connect, you can use the iVPN icon in the menu bar to monitor the status of clients.

How does VPN Gate work?

• VPN Gate network consists of many VPN servers, which are provided by volunteers around the world.
• You can provide your own computer as a VPN server to join this experiment.
• Windows, Mac, iPhone, iPad and Android are supported.
• Supports SSL-VPN (SoftEther VPN) protocol, L2TP/IPsec protocol, OpenVPN protocol and Microsoft SSTP protocol.
• Anonymous connections are accepted.
• No user registrations are required.
• Each VPN server has a dynamic IP address. Therefore it may change at random period.
• VPN servers appear and disappear at any time. Therefore, an IP address may not always connect to a VPN server.
• All VPN servers are capable of routing your traffic to the Internet, so you can disguise your real IP address.
• Using a server located somewhere other than your region may provide you some more accessible websites, because the comminucation would look as if it is originated from the country the VPN server resides.

Features and Highlights
VPN can bypass the governmental firewall
If the governmental firewall is malfunctioning, or when some websites abroad are unreachable within the firewall, you can access them by relaying your connection to VPN servers located outside of your territory of residence.
VPN can hide your actual IP address
While your connection is relayed through a VPN server, the source IP address disclosed to the target server will be the VPN server's, not your actual one. This will be very helpful to you because nobody can trace back to your original IP address, eliminating the risk of being spied on. VPN enables you to post contents on BBS or send emails completely anonymously, providing safety to just activists who intend to bring an accusation for public benefits. You will be safe from revenges or lawsuits by the accusee. Finally, even if your computer has been compromised by a malware and hijacked by a criminal, VPN protects you from being framed up and thrown to jail because your actual IP address will be concealed.
VPN can prevent eavesdropping
When using VPN, all transmissions will be automatically encrypted. Even if your local network is compromised by snoopers, your transmissions will remain intact. Note that this solution can only encrypt within the VPN tunnel, therefore packets forwarded from the VPN server to the destination are not within the scope of this solution. (i.e. it will not be encrypted.)
