I am trying to connect to openvpn with google authenticator enabled but it is showing the issue
AUTH_FAILED,Google Authenticator Code must be a number
However I am able to connect it via web.
Please help me and thanks in advance

This looks like an encoding issue. I was facing this after a dist upgrade to Ubuntu Xenial and solved this by simply changing the verbosity level.
Find your configuration file (Usually *.ovpn), find the line which says verb 3 and change it to verb 4. That makes it work.
If you can't find your ovpn file, try running a grep -nar "verb 3" on the root directory. That should help you find the file.
For example: sudo openvpn --config client.ovpn --script-security 2
As in my case configuration file is client.ovpn

I was able to resolve this issue after installing openvpn from source

I was given the following files from work, in a compressed folder
ca.crt
dh.pem
myuser.crt
myuser.key
myuser.ovpn
ta.key
The suggested way is to connect using openvpn3 from this site
Is it possible to use these files to connect using the command line openvpn that comes with the linux mint distribution?
Thank you
Seems this OpenVPN config for openvpn2. Just install Linux Mint openvpn package
apt update
apt install openvpn
and try to connect
openvpn --config <path to>/myuser.ovpn
ALso check if this lines exists in myuser.ovpn
up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf

I have an Ubunutu 14.04 LTS Server (64-bit) installed on a Cloud Server. As of right now it is a fresh install with no GUI, simply the console.
I want to know if it is possible to set up this server with a minified Unity desktop environment which I can then remote connect into from another computer. I understand the added security risk and etc with installing a GUI on a server.
Any guidance or help would be appreciated
I have searched the web and only found a few forums going over the XFCE environment. Even those were a little unclear. I am not necessarily against the XFCE environment as long as I can install it correctly. So any help there as well would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm trying to install cmake at my CentOS 6.2, but for some reason i get this error message :
Resolving www.cmake.org... failed: Temporary failure in name resolution.
wget: unable to resolve host address “www.cmake.org”.
This is the command i wrote :
wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.3.tar.gz
This is probably old, but here is how it worked for me:
1. Comment out the IPV6 properties on /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
#IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
#IPV6INIT=yes
2. Restart your network service.
service network restart
Then wget worked like a charm ;)
Yes. In my case this was because of wrong entry of DNS server in my local "/etc/resolv.conf".
I have added the proper entry in "/etc/resolv.conf" and then restarted the netwrork using "# service network restart".
Then I was able to use "wget".
Thank you very much.
I know I am necro-posting, but, I found a solution to this, and the solutions is that, you may have set-up a static ip which is not working in Raspberry Pi (basically it doesn't have internet access), So, removing the "ip" line from "/boot/cmdline.txt/" seems to helped me.

I have installed Internet Information Services on windows and Apache on "Ubuntu" using apt-get command to install . "Ubuntu" is being run in my virtual box. now i want to connect these two computer together for which i opened fire fox on Ubuntu and entered my windows "IP address" in the address bar .windows firewall is off.
i ran # /etc/init.d/apache2 start to start Apache as well
Result: link of Microsoft.com/web with a huge IIS 8 on the page .what is wrong ?how can i fix this?
I don't really get what you are trying to do, but when you write the IP of a computer running either IIS or Apache, you should see a home page, probably the default one if you had never change it.
What are looking forward to do exactly?
In IIS the default html file is located in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\index.html
In Apache you should find httpd.conf file, it has the route to the default website, which probably is /www/index.html or something like that

I'm running a CentOS6.4 virtual box on windows 8 (using vagrant), and I'm trying to install my project's dependencies which include proto. I'm running npm install proto and it prompts me for a password. WTH? Why would npm prompt me for a password?
https://github.com/isaacs/npm/issues/3956
As far as I can tell, npm doesn't like the following format on CentOS (and possibly other flavors of linux)
git+https://git#github.com/project/blah.git#commit-ish
Using the git username seems to work fine on windows, but I guess it throws linux for a loop. I ended up switching to using the following format:
https://github.com/project/blah/archive/commit-ish.tar.gz
You got a repos by HTTPS cloning with OAuth tokens. Password is the token and it isn't cached.
You can setup SSH agent forwarding, so it does not prompt you password.
