NAME

       connman-vpn.conf - ConnMan-VPN configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/connman/connman-vpn.conf

DESCRIPTION

       connman-vpn.conf  is  a configuration file for ConnMan-VPN. The configuration file is optional but it can
       be used to set up various aspects of ConnMan-VPN's behavior. The location of  the  file  may  be  changed
       through use of the --config= argument for connman-vpn(8).

       DAC  privileges  (user,  group  and  supplementary  groups)  of a VPN binary ran by connman-vpn(8) can be
       controlled by this configuration.  Configuration in connman-vpn.conf is for all  VPN  types  and  can  be
       overridden  by  defining  separate  configs  into  /etc/connman/vpn-plugin/ using the plugin name + .conf
       suffix using the same  syntax.  For  example,  for  OpenVPN  the  path  to  config  is  /etc/connman/vpn-
       plugin/openvpn.conf which will override any value in the main configuration.

FILE FORMAT

       The  configuration file consists of sections (groups) of key-value pairs.  Lines beginning with a '#' and
       blank lines are considered comments.  Sections are started  by  a  header  line  containing  the  section
       enclosed  in  '['  and ']', and ended implicitly by the start of the next section or the end of the file.
       Each key-value pair must be contained in a section.

       Description of sections and available keys follows:

   [General]
       This section is the only mandatory section of the configuration file.

       InputRequestTimeout=secs
              Set input request timeout. Default is 300 seconds. The request for  inputs  like  passphrase  will
              timeout  after certain amount of time. Use this setting to increase the value in case of different
              user interface designs.

   [DACPrivileges]
       This section controls the DAC privileges to use for a VPN binary used by a  VPN  plugin.  DAC  privileges
       that can be set are user, group and supplementary groups.

       User=username/uid
              User on the system to use for running VPN binary. Username or uid can be used.

       Group=groupname/gid
              The main group to use for running VPN binary. Group name or gid can be used.

       SupplementaryGroups=groupnames/gids
              Comma separated list of supplementary groups to set for the VPN binary. Groups can be defined with
              their names or gid's.

EXAMPLES

       The  following example configuration sets InputRequestTimeout to 10 minutes, runs VPNs as user "vpn_user"
       of group "vpn" with additional supplementary groups "inet" and "net_admin".

       [General]
       InputRequestTimeout = 600

       [DACPrivileges]
       User = vpn_user
       Group = vpn
       SupplementaryGroups = inet, net_admin
