Hi, here is another inquiry on this one.
I already followed the steps and how-to but when I execute:
# openvpn --config server.conf
I got this error:
Mon Mar 1 00:03:12 2010 OpenVPN 2.1.1 i686-pc-linux-gnu [SSL] [EPOLL] built
on Feb 25 2010
Mon Mar 1 00:03:12 2010 NOTE: the current --script-security setting may
allow this configuration to call user-defined scripts

Permission denied (errno=13)*

interface
Mon Mar 1 00:03:12 2010 Cannot allocate TUN/TAP dev dynamically
Mon Mar 1 00:03:12 2010 Exiting
I also followed this one to solved that issue:
*

*Solution*
1. Enter mkdir -p /dev/net
2. Enter mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200
3. Enter chmod 600 /dev/net/tun
4. Enter cat /dev/net/tun to test whether the TUN/TAP device is
available:
1. If you receive the message *cat: /dev/net/tun: File descriptor in
bad state* your TUN/TAP device is ready for use
2. If you receive the message *cat: /dev/net/tun: No such device* the
TUN/TAP device was not successfully created
3. We have to enable ip_forwarding and enable NAT by the command
below. Masquerade will not work in VPS
# iptables *-t nat -A POSTROUTING -j SNAT --to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx*
*
*
But I still got the same error. Hope somebody can help me out. Thanks.
Regards,
Tata
