Description
In https://github.com/ooni/devops/issues/195 the greenhost deployment of the openvpn server was terminated.
It was not clear to us at the time that this would impact probes, but it did since that was the only true server running openvpn, while the other endpoints were configured to just be simple TCP proxies.
As a result of this we are now in a situation where all openvpn tests are failing as the proxying service is not forwarding traffic to any valid backend.
We should find a way to unbrick this by:
- Setting up a new instance of the openvpn service
- Migrating the keys over to the new service (this is pending on getting the private keys from @ainghazal as we don't have a backup of them)
- If we aren't able to migrate they keys we will have to create new credentials and ship an update of probe with the new keys
