OpenVPN is an excellent way to provide remote access to users from home or on the road.OpenVPN provides a complete replacement of the time to time unreliable PPTP VPN which is a part of the standard SME distribution. This Howto is focused on using OpenVPN as a Windows 2k/XP/Vista Client to Server VPN connection. The installation consists of two steps, first the the portion which resides on the server and then the Client. I the following setup it is assumed that the local IP range for the private network is 192.168.1.0/24 and that the tunneled VPN network will be 192.168.100.0/24.

{{Note box|OpenVPN-Bridge contribution is an alternative to this (with even a server-manager panel) but seems more targeted site<->site configurations. See http://sme.firewall-services.com/spip.php?article43}}
