VPN and Fedora serverWin client 4278

Tauno Voipio understanding

Thanks, I'll give it a read! I see the other fellow's endorsing reply, so I look forward to taking the time to check it out.

I took a glance at OpenVPN (as I mentioned) and also found It mentions tunnel and bridged, and I see you're probably right about bridged. Which really sucks because it sounds like bridged is going to be a pain to set up and is mentioned as being "inefficient". Which may also suck since the client it going to be sending back and forth tons of large files.

With tunneled, I understand the client will have a different IP range. Like, for example, under the NAT currently our IP's are 192.168.1.2 - .255. The VPN client would have an IP outside that? Like 196.182.1.5? (I have no idea if that's a valid IP...I just made it up to ask the question.) So, could he still not be able to access other machines on the network by navigating directly to their IP addresses? Or...he'd be also using a different subnet, right? Different subnets are technically invisible to other subnets on the same network?

LOL I should just read that link you sent me, huh? =) Thanks! Liam
