Thanks for the tip, but the problem is that when I installed "openVPN" via YaST, I can not run "openvpn" in shell. It shows that the package is installed but it can not be run. By the way, do you connect to your Linux VPN from XP, by establishing a VPN connection as it should be for other VPNs?
It can be started by (root) command or in Yast System Services. I use the command method. On my firewall, I use the following commands in /etc/init.d/boot.local: #start vpn tunnel modprobe tun /usr/local/bin/vpn_up & That script points to /usr/local/bin/vpn_up: #! /bin/bash cd /etc/openvpn /usr/sbin/openvpn --config static-office.conf On my notebook, I start & stop it with scripts that use sudoers to grant root access to user commands. I connect to Linux from both Linux & Windows, though not at the same time as I have only a single static config. You can set up OpenVPN with a key server, to allow multiple connections, but I've never done that. I use OpenVPN for both remote access and also when using WiFi at home. The WiFi access is outside of my firewall and requires OpenVPN or SSH to access my network. -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
