Have you been looking for a good guide or tutorial for installing openvpn on a raspberry pi or ubuntu based server? Run this script and you don't need a guide or tutorial, this will do it all for you, in a fraction of the time and with hardened security settings in place by default.
The master branch of this script installs and configures OpenVPN on Raspbian
Jessie and has been tested on Ubuntu 14.04 running from an Amazon AWS image. Personally, I'd recommend using the Jessie Lite image on a raspberry pi in your home so you can VPN into your home from unsecure remote locations and safely use the internet.

They should work on the majority of Ubuntu and Debian based distributions including those using UFW by default instead of raw iptables.

You should also setup your Pi with a static IP address (see either source
