OpenVPN for Kindle

OpenVPN for Kindle.

Copy files from archive to Kindle root folder (except this file)

Copy your own .opvn configuration to openvpn/kindle.ovpn (replace empty file kindle.ovpn)

Eject Kindle.

Start "book" "OpenVPN Client 2.7.4" from your Library. It's just closed, and if configuration is OK, you will be connected to OpenVPN server.

If it doesn't work, check if module TUN exists in kernel:

from kterm:

zcat /proc/config.gz | grep CONFIG_TUN

if output looks like:
# CONFIG_TUN is not set
then, you cannot use OpenVPN on your Kindle

Tested on Kindle PW 12th, FW 5.19.4.0.1 (I hope it is not the only device/fw with TUN)
