OpenVPN on the wireless and external
I installed OpenVPN on the firewall/WAP to replace WEP permanently. It’s pushing the subnet and remote gateway as default. This is working great on wireless but the same setup works on the external interface too and I’m not so sure that I want to push the default gateway when I’m logged in from work/out/etc. That can be a lot of data to push to home and then out. This needs some tweaking. I’m using Tunnelblick front end on the Powerbook and it’s working nicely.
The client/server setup only uses tun devices which works great for *nix but Windows only has tap drivers available. I could setup another instance of OpenVPN to create a point to point connection for Windows but I think I’ll just enable an authpf profile for this. I don’t have a laptop running Windows so this isn’t really a big issue right now. The Powerbook has an install of Win2k on it that I use once in a while but it routes through OS X and the old Dell laptop runs FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Linux. The other option is Windows is wired instead of wireless.
