On Ubuntu 9.04 (jaunty) you can even use Network Manager as OpenVPN client.
First of all install the package: sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn Inside the Network Manager menu you can now find the submenu "VPN Connections", click on "Configure VPN" and create e new connection. For a standard Endian OpenVPN account (based on username, password, ca cert) you can basically chose "Password" in the "Type" field. For compatibility reasons you have to tick the following options: in "Advanced" - "Use LZO data compression" - "Use a TAP device" in "IPv4 Settings" > "Routes" - "Use this connection only for resources on its network" Leave default configurations for the rest and enjoy! Luca PS: There is an option called "Connect automatically" but actually for me it doesn't connect at boot. > Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2009 12:37:57 +0200 > From: "Vassilis V." <bigracc...@gmx.net> > Subject: Re: [Efw-user] OpenVPN client without user/pass > authentication > To: efw-user@lists.sourceforge.net > Message-ID: <4ad6fb85.9060...@gmx.net> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed > > I have a Linux (Ubuntu) PC that I want to connect to my green network > over VPN.
