Specifically, I'm running an "appliance" distro called Untangle. It's really really nice, unless you have reptty weird needs, I can't recommend it enough. It's easy to install and easy to manage. The really nice part is that it automagically creates custom installers for OpenVPN for Windows users, making deploying VPN Clients to users pretty brainless. The config files and keys it creates and distributes are perfectly usable with OpenVPN on Linux (I use it via the Network Manager OpenVPN plugin) and I have no reason to think they would not work with one of the OSX OpenVPN clients. -- -Regards- -Quentin Hartman-
