-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi All,
I think I'm about 3 seconds away from understanding how to do this, but it's a looong three seconds. I've set up an OpenVPN server and can successfully connect to it from my laptop using the OpenVPN in client mode. All is good, but I'm not quite able to make the leap to what I really want to happen. I want to experiment using this VPN in public hotspots to secure my traffic. In short, I want all my traffic to go from my wifi card to my OpenVPN server and THEN out into the Internet. At the moment, even when connected to the VPN, a quick visit to What's my IP shows my home WAN IP so I know I'm not coming out of my VPN server. I'm thinking I need to be looking at routing or tunneling or something. I'm familiar with using VPNs to access server shares, mail servers, and the like, but not how to tell my NIC to exclusively send traffic to it instead out to the Internet at large. Does that even make sense? Sheesh...nudges welcome. Oh, and since this is a Talk list - I'm totally up for hearing about cool things one can do with a VPN. Thanks!
