Use linux computer as a vpn server to remotely access files from all devices at home/office

 You can set up a Linux computer as a VPN server to remotely access files from all your devices at home or the office. OpenVPN is a popular and open-source VPN solution that can be used to achieve this. Here's a general guide on how to set up an OpenVPN server on your Linux computer: 1. **Prepare Your Linux Server**:    Ensure that your Linux server has a static IP address and is accessible over the internet. You'll need root or superuser access to configure the server. 2. **Install OpenVPN**:    You can install OpenVPN on your Linux server using your distribution's package manager. For example, on Ubuntu, you can use the following command:    ```bash    sudo apt-get install openvpn    ``` 3. **Set Up the OpenVPN Server**:    - Create the OpenVPN server configuration file. You can copy the default configuration file:      ```bash      sudo cp /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files/server.conf.gz /etc/openvpn/      sudo gzip -d /etc/openvpn/server.conf.gz      `
