Bug Description

The documentation at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN refers to the no longer used `admins` group. This should be now be replaced by the `sudo` group. However that page is marked as **immutable** so I couldn't edit it to fix this issue.

Thanks for pointing it out. Due to an issue with bot spam, the community help wiki is currently locked, and it can only be edited by dedicated editors.

I need to update an Ubuntu help page too, but cannot do it.

Getting a decent short-term solution in place should be given high priority.

Thanks Anthony for the bug report. I've changed "root:admins" to "root:sudo" on the page. Hopefully the bot spam issue will be resolved soon.

Thanks, David. That was promptly resolved. I became aware of this after this question was posted on AskUbuntu: https://askubuntu.com/questions/719099/installing-openvpn-on-ubuntu-15-10
