OpenVPN
A self-hosted Networking & VPN app you can run on your own server.
With OpenVPN, you get a self-hosted networking application that lives on your own server, under your rules. Self-hosting it means no per-user subscription and no third-party cloud holding your information.
Development happens in the open on GitHub; the repository has collected 14.5K stars so far. Repository activity was last recorded on Sep 8, 2026, and the project is classed as actively maintained in our snapshot.
Before you switch
Networking changes can lock you out of your own server, so keep a fallback access path while you configure. Read the project's reverse-proxy and certificate notes carefully, open only the ports required, and test from outside your home network before relying on it.
Like every project listed on SelfHosted, OpenVPN is developed in the open — you can read the code, follow development, and even contribute. Check the system requirements and the project’s own documentation linked on this page before installing.
