# Configure OpenFortiVPN

Debe configurarse el archivo

```bash
// Ghost BSD
$ vi /usr/local/etc/openfortivpn/config

// Ubuntu
$ nano /etc/openfortivpn/config
```

Use `persistent=10` to prevent the connection from closing.

Add connections for your own servers (e.g., self-hosted Git repo)

```bash
$ sudo vi /etc/hosts  

// add this line
<ip> <url_git_server> 
```

Connect with

```bash
$ sudo openfortivpn -c <config_file_route> --persistent=10
```

The connection may be rejected on the first attempt. The error message will display `trusted-cert`. Copy and paste the line `trusted-cert =` into the configuration file and reconnect.

When the connection is successful, this screen will be displayed (Ghost BSD).
