Pritunl is an open source VPN server you can easily install on your Linux servers to virtualize your private networks.
I've walked you through the process of installing Pritunl on Ubuntu Server 20.04 and now I want to do the same with AlmaLinux 8.5.
To successfully install Pritunl on AlmaLinux, you'll need a running/updated instance of the OS and a user with sudo privileges.
To prevent connection issues to the Pritunl server when it's under a higher load, we need to increase the open file limit.
Conf' How to access the Pritunl web UI. Give the service a moment to start and then point a web browser to https://SERVER. You should be greeted by the Pritunl database setup window.
You now have the Pritunl VPN server up and running on AlmaLinux 8.5.
