- Requires packages: curl wget openvpn dialog sudo fping

* hma-vpn.sh
= v2.x (Beta) of our original script with various improvements, such as protocol choice (UDP/TCP), daemon mode, 
  auto-login, port choice, update function, show status, server-pingtest, auto-connect to fastest server, etc. 
- Required packages: curl wget openvpn sudo fping

= Official, original Linux script as available in the VPN control panel in the past (v1.3)
  Included for legacy reasons in case of trouble with the new scripts
- Requires packages: curl wget openvpn sudo

-----------------------

Which script to choose?

* For Linux beginners we recommend using the "hma-openvpn.sh" script by simply running 
  "./hma-openvpn.sh" or "bash hma-openvpn.sh". This script asks you for only the most basic required 
  information (server-choice, protocol, username, password) and establishes a connection.

* For advanced Linux users we recommend the "hma-vpn.sh" script as it offers 
  a variety of additional features for various purposes.

* If for some reason you prefer the "old" script or the other two scripts don't properly work for you, 
  you can use the legacy version by running "./hma-vpn-old.sh" respectively "bash hma-vpn-old.sh"
