linux VPN
Hi guys
Is there any good new documentations about VPN in linux ?
I don't want to read for ever
+ almost docs i've found are talking about kernel 2.0 & 2.2
_______________________________________________________
- How to set up a VPN connection between 2 linux machines and linux windows as well.
actually the map is (linux as a firewall windows clients behind) planning to connect to another (linux server win-clients behind)somewhere and a windows 2000server somewhere else
_______________________________________________________
Thanks

part of OpenVPN's Official documentation there is a quickstart guide...
http://openvpn.net/static.html
what's wrong with reading that? Personally no, i've not been in a position whereby i feel entitled to expect volunteers to write dedicated concise documentation for me personally when perfectly adequate resources already exist.

Just enable remote desktop connection and port forward
5801
5901
Then you connect by typing http://machineip:5801

huh? enabling VNC does not have anything to do with a secure VPN in any way at all... and anyone opening up a VNC server to the internet deserves being hacked into by it.
