AUTH_METHOD=rancherlocal when Rancher uses Github auth about docker-rancher-openvpn

[dwene]

I'm in the same boat with you, seems you cant make this work when rancher auth is configured with github. And sadly Rancher wont allow you to change auth mechanisms once you've set them up.

Haven't found a solution thus far. Thanks for piping up!

This propably won't help you, but I can confirm that Rancher auth works with Azure AD backend authentification configured.

@emcniece did you every find a solution to this issue?

Negative @janajri

haven't tested it yet but perhaps you could generate Account API Key (API > Keys > Add Account API Key) and use the generated Access Key (Username) and Secret Key (Password) for the VPN prompt ?

@bjerkins
I've tried your suggestion. I've tried local auth instead of Github auth, but the access and secret key credentials do not work with openvpn.

Here are the environments:
