-) Download OVPN files from Members section (https://members.astrill.com/openvpn-certificates.php)
-) You will find the certificate data in that "01-USA-Los-Angeles-F1.ovpn" (You can use any server you like xxx.ovpn). You need to copy/paste all text between <CA> and </CA> tags, but don't include those tags. Then save the file as "ca.crt". and then test on Synology NAS.

-) Create an OpenVPN client connection on the Synology NAS using a ca.crt file. (Use certificate data from <CA> .... </CA> tags from xxx.opvn file then save this as "ca.crt")
-) Copy the xxxx.ovpn file from your site to the synology folder : /usr/syno/etc/synovpnclient/openvpn
-) Rename the xxxx.ovpn file to client_yyyyyyy, where client_yyyyyyy is the original name of the ovpn description in the NAS
-) Start the connection and it is working
-) Must not change anymore the configuration from the NAS software. If you do that the client_yyyyyyy file is restored to the original settings and you have to redo the copy. So, from now this part is working.
