Hi Linda,
IMHO, You are in the right track. Although I'm by no means a Guru on OpenVPN, I do use it, personally and professionally.
The OpenVPN gui in Windows is a bit poor though. You will need to install the config file in their "C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config\" (probably) and then OpenVPN will automatically load it (if there is one) and the GUI thing in the system tray allows you to select from multiples (if you have more). It will take care of Windows routing settings automatically using the redirect-gateway directive. Unless you are using an SSH tunnel to go through, that should be simple. The system is a bit bugged in closing connections, I often have to restart (kill) the program to get it functional again. So it's rather mediocre in terms of user friendliness (this from a very well-known package!) but it does work without problem. There is the option to use either tcp or udp. I believe the default is udp. If for some reason you need tcp, there is a bit of confusion regarding the directive you need; either it is "tcp" or "tcp-client". I think that depends on what your server sets; they have to be the same. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
