By default, a single user account for VPN login is created. If you wish to add, edit or remove users, read this document.
First, the IPsec PSK (pre-shared key) is stored in /etc/ipsec.secrets. To change to a new PSK, just edit this file.
<VPN Server IP> %any : PSK "<VPN IPsec PSK>"For IPsec/L2TP, VPN users are specified in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets. The format of this file is:
"<VPN User 1>" l2tpd "<VPN Password 1>" *
"<VPN User 2>" l2tpd "<VPN Password 2>" *
... ...You can add more users, use one line for each user. DO NOT use these characters within values: \ " '
For IPsec/XAuth ("Cisco IPsec"), VPN users are specified in /etc/ipsec.d/passwd. The format of this file is:
<VPN User 1>:<VPN Password 1 (hashed)>:xauth-psk
<VPN User 2>:<VPN Password 2 (hashed)>:xauth-psk
... ...Passwords in this file are salted and hashed. This step can be done using e.g. the openssl utility:
# The output will be <VPN Password 1 (hashed)>
openssl passwd -1 "<VPN Password 1>"When finished making changes, run these commands or reboot your server.
service ipsec restart
service xl2tpd restart
