Verify that you have an end-to-end connection before trying to push any data through it. If you are running windows vista or windows 7 and start the connection with the OpenVPN GUI, you have to run it as administrator or it doesn't have the rights to add a route to the routing table. Don't be afraid of the certificate based method; it's really not hard! Using the shared secret will only allow a single point to point connection. That is, you have to use certificates if you want more than one client. -M -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
