警告：如果您所在国家的法律禁止加密的使用，你自己必须禁用 SoftEther VPN 的加密功能。同样，在一些国家或地区， SoftEther VPN 的某些功能可能会被法律禁止使用。

本文介绍在Google Cloud Rocky Linux 9上安装SoftEther VPN的方法。

说明：

• 网络上的安装方法很多是V4.34之前的版本（包括4.34）
• 4.34之后的版本，在CentOS 7系统中无法编译成功，会提示缺依赖组件以及C标头文件跟各类函数库文件
• 本文使用的是：softether-vpnserver-v4.41-9787-rtm-2023.03.14-linux-x64-64bit 稳定版（目前为止最新版本）

系统选择

由于4.34之后的版本，在CentOS 7系统中无法编译成功，所以推荐使用 Rocky Linux9

开始部署

进入Google cloud控制台，创建实例

进入创建实例页面后需要：

• 填写实例名称 使用默认名称即可
• 选择服务器区域 建议选择离你距离近的服务器

选择服务器系统 Rocky Linux 9

点击更改 选择Rocky Linux 9，如图所示。

防火墙：

• 允许 HTTP 流量
• 允许 HTTPS 流量

配置完成后点击 创建

连接服务器

创建完成后，通过SSH连接到服务器

安装SoftEtherVPN服务器

切换到root用户

sudo su

安装make

yum install make -y

---------------------------------------------------
SoftEther VPN Operation Environment Check Tool

Copyright (c) SoftEther VPN Project.

If this operation environment check tool is run on a system and that system passes, it is most likely that SoftEther VPN software can operate on that system. This check may take a while. Please wait...

Checking 'Kernel System'... 
              Pass
Checking 'Memory Operation System'... 
              Pass
Checking 'ANSI / Unicode string processing system'... 
              Pass
Checking 'File system'... 
              Pass
Checking 'Thread processing system'... 
              Pass
Checking 'Network system'... 
              Pass

All checks passed. It is most likely that SoftEther VPN Server / Bridge can operate normally on this system.

The command completed successfully.

*** How to switch the display language of the SoftEther VPN Server Service ***
SoftEther VPN Server supports the following languages:
  - Japanese
  - English
  - Simplified Chinese

You can choose your prefered language of SoftEther VPN Server at any time.
To switch the current language, open and edit the 'lang.config' file.


Note: the administrative password is not set on the VPN Server. Please set your own administrative password as soon as possible by vpncmd or the GUI manager.


*** How to start the SoftEther VPN Server Service ***

Please execute './vpnserver start' to run the SoftEther VPN Server Background Service.
And please execute './vpncmd' to run the SoftEther VPN Command-Line Utility to configure SoftEther VPN Server.

Of course, you can use the VPN Server Manager GUI Application for Windows / Mac OS X on the other Windows / Mac OS X computers in order to configure the SoftEther VPN Server remotely.

*** For Windows users ***
You can download the SoftEther VPN Server Manager for Windows
from the http://www.softether-download.com/ web site.
This manager application helps you to completely and easily manage the VPN server services running in remote hosts.


*** For Mac OS X users ***
In April 2016 we released the SoftEther VPN Server Manager for Mac OS X.
You can download it from the http://www.softether-download.com/ web site.
VPN Server Manager for Mac OS X works perfectly as same as the traditional Windows versions. It helps you to completely and easily manage the VPN server services running in remote hosts.



*** PacketiX VPN Server HTML5 Web Administration Console (NEW) ***
This VPN Server / Bridge has the built-in HTML5 Web Administration Console.

After you start the server daemon, you can open the HTML5 Web Administration Console is available at

https://127.0.0.1:5555/
or
https://ip_address_of_the_vpn_server:5555/

This HTML5 page is obviously under construction, and your HTML5 development contribution is very appreciated.

如果遇到编译报错请执行以下命令来安装软件包及其依赖项

yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
yum install readline-devel openssl-devel ncurses-devel

更改语言（可选）

softether安装目录中有一个lang.config文件。将配置更改为cn

# PacketiX VPN / SoftEther VPN Language Setting File
# 
# Specify your preferred Language ID on this setting file.
# The text messages will be displayed in the specified language.
# 
# Please note that you must restart a program to apply the modification of
# this setting-file.

# Only one line is acceptable. Any other lines are ignored.
# 
# The change of this file will effect after the next execution of a program.
# 
# Note for UNIX / Linux Users:
#  You have to set the LANG environment variable if you want to display
#  non-English characters. If no LANG environment is set, any multi-byte
#  characters (i.e. Japanese or Chinese) will not be displayed correctly.
# 
# Available Language IDs are:
#  ja: Japanese (日本語)
#  en: English (English)
#  cn: Simplified Chinese (简体中文)


# Specify a Language ID here.

By using vpncmd program, the following can be achieved. 

1. Management of VPN Server or VPN Bridge 
2. Management of VPN Client
3. Use of VPN Tools (certificate creation and Network Traffic Speed Test Tool)

Select 1, 2 or 3: 

将SoftEther VPN设定为系统的服务

vi /etc/systemd/system/vpnserver.service
[Unit] 
Description=SoftEther Server 
After=network.target 
[Service] 
Type=forking 
ExecStart=/usr/local/vpnserver/vpnserver start 
ExecStop=/usr/local/vpnserver/vpnserver stop

[Install] 
WantedBy=multi-user.target

启动服务

systemctl start vpnserver

确认服务状态为 active(running)

systemctl status vpnserver

将vpnserver设定为开机自动启动

systemctl enable vpnserver

下载SoftEther VPN Server Manager

访问SoftEther VPN下载中心下载 SoftEther VPN Server Manger for Windows。

启动SoftEther VPN Manager后，点击新设置

设置名输入任意名称，主机名输入SoftEther VPN服务器的IP地址后，点击确定。

连接后，需要配置管理员密码

接着按配置向导操作，比如提供员工远程访问的，或配置对等网络，本例选择远程访问：

确认初始化server服务

创建服务器的HUB

动态DNS配置，默认或按需求更改

配置用户名和密码

• 本实例选择用户密码认证

客户端连接

下载softether client客户端

创建新的连接

另外，本服务还可以绕过校园网认证，进行免费上网，我会在后续的文章中为大家介绍。
