As far as I can see, this is factually correct and quite helpful in understanding the packet flow through the full chain of "things involved" - great work. It's missing a small detail (which is not easy to add, admittedly) for point-to-multipoint servers: there is a routing table *inside* the openvpn process (iroute), which decides which client the packet should receive. This happens between "read from tun" and "compress" (as the compression algorithm is per-client). gert -- USENET is *not* the non-clickable part of WWW! //www.muc.de/~gert/ Gert Doering - Munich, Germany g...@greenie.muc.de fax: +49-89-35655025 g...@net.informatik.tu-muenchen.de
