Client and Server on same Box

maiconlp

Hello, I have an Linux Box that is as a Client OpenVPN. but I want it become in the server OpenVPN too.

So I will have it as a Client and server. it's possible ? how to ?

my files of the client OPenVPN are in /etc/openvpn currently that there is the client.conf. so I think I can't have more any file .conf that directory.

thanks

any tip is welcome.

hi there,

So I will have it as a Client and server. it's possible ? how to ?

openvpns behavior is decided by config files..
yes you can have 2 server configs and 2 client config in the same box 😉

hi again,

I want my linux box been either client and server the same time.

let me explain...

you can be a server (using config file a.conf)
and you can be a client (using config file b.conf which connects to ANOTHER server)

what exactly do you want to do?

Michael.

Thank you Maikcat.

I Have just done what you told me ( added two files: a.conf as a Server and b.conf as a client ) all it's working.
