what do you mean with: "site<->end" and how is it different compared to your instructions? AFAIK you can perfectly use the openvpn-bridge contrib for getting an outside client into the local net. It seems you try to do the same with your manual setup or am I missing something here? I see no need to have this manual instructions as you can perfectly use the openvpn-bridge contrib for this and it has the benefit of a server-manager panel. I would appreciate if you could explain the differences to me, as I do not see them. <small>— [[User:Cactus|Cactus]] ([[User talk:Cactus|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Cactus|contribs]]) </small> 06:39, 5 September 2008 (UTC) | what do you mean with: "site<->end" and how is it different compared to your instructions?

Knuddi, what do you mean with: "site<->end" and how is it different compared to your instructions? AFAIK you can perfectly use the openvpn-bridge contrib for getting an outside client into the local net. It seems you try to do the same with your manual setup or am I missing something here? I see no need to have this manual instructions as you can perfectly use the openvpn-bridge contrib for this and it has the benefit of a server-manager panel. I would appreciate if you could explain the differences to me, as I do not see them. — Cactus (talk | contribs) 06:39, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
