macOS Tunnelblick
Step-by-Step guide
Note: This guide was created using macOS Sierra and Tunnelblick 3.7.1b in 2017.
1.) Download the latest stable version of Tunnelblick on the following homepage:
https://tunnelblick.net/downloads.html
2.) Open the downloaded file (usually in your “Downloads“ folder). To start the installation,
double click on the “Tunnelblick“ icon.
Usually, the Mac will ask for a permission, because the program does not belong to the
Apple Store. After giving the permission, sometimes the Mac will send another warning, to
make sure, you are really aware of the risk to install an unknown application.
3.) Installation succeeded: You can launch the application and choose the configuration files.
Download the configuration file from:
http://www.tf.uni-kiel.de/itg/en/services/vpn/connection-profiles?set_language=en
Extract and copy the file to the temporarily opened “Private Configurations“ folder.
Next, log in to your current TF-Account to be connected. No matter, which profile you are
using.
Some Notes:
• The routing table can be printed by opening a Terminal window and inserting netstat -r.
• You can access the shares of your workgroup-server through the “Connect to server“
option in the Finder section „Go“. Or simply pressing cmd + K.
