Hi,
This is what I've been trying to explain, with just the interface, policy
and zones I can make this work on any distro, I don't need rules to connect
to OpenVPN or stay online with it...
It seems like to me for OpenVPN as long as you have an interface, vpn
running on tun0, defined in the policy to allow this connection, with the
zone vpn ipv4, you can connect to an OpenVPN server as a client and then
make the changes in the Policy as I explained before once you've connected,
restart Shorewall and have the connection routed over the tunnel...
THANKS
