Good afternoon, openVPN was on the "to-do" list for a long time, now it's a need (I think.) Rather than a long boring story, in a quick nutshell, I need to have an inhouse openvpn server (A) talk to another one in Europe (B). I need to have anything on the private network in the US (Server A) when it goes out to simply route ALL traffic through the tunnel, through server B so it will have the Europe's IP address.

Server B will be an amazon EC2 instance, both will be basic linux servers, so the questions are;

1. Is this possible with Open VPN?
2. If so, where do I begin. Since I want all traffic from A -> B, I don't know if it makes the config easy/hard.

I will post this and begin looking at turorials, configs, manager type things (if there out there), but before I really start, want to confirm I can do this with 2 openVPN servers.

Thanks for all read/replies.

Great reply, is that "10t" 10 years old? I was leaving from work and wanted to confirm before I got started, maybe some advice on getting started, known pitfalls, but no I get an acronym with profanity. That coming from a "power openvpn user" with a whole 69 posts, and the bigger joke, your Dune2 Facebook page proving my point even more.

So aside from Debbie the all knowing Dune 2 master and Open VPN guru, I will go ahead with the binary install on both systems and start looking at how-to.

Thanks again Debbie, you have a wonderful night, well, unless Mommy and Daddy tucked you in already in which I bid you good morning.
