Multiple Tunnels on the same server

gcc_computo

Hello,
How can I run two tunnels or instances on the same server?
I went to search for this on the net but nothing really helpful was there on the net. no How-to's or tutorials for this.

What I want to do is:
On One server (running Windows 2003) that is already running OpenVPN with a routed tunnel or conection, run a bridged connection too. Some call this multiple instances and some refer to this as multiple tunnels, but there is no guide on how to do this, can some one help??

Thanks.

krzee

just setup 2 configs, and run both (on different combo of ip/port/protocol of course)

gcc_computo

Can I use the same NIC and TAP adapter?

I have one NIC and TAP adapter working for the first tunnel, can I bridge them and use that bridge for the other config??

Thanks.

krzee

no, you need another adapter
from http://www.openvpn.net/INSTALL-win32.html
"Multiple OpenVPN processes can run concurrently, each on a different TAP-Win32 adapter."

Hello,
I have a few questions...
1)Can I use the same key for the two connections?

2)Why is the tap adapter on the bridged connection not connected?
It says that the networkt cable is disconnected... the other connection is OK, is working fine just the bridged one is not working.

Here is the server config file (bridge.ovpn)

Any ideas??? Why the adapter is not working??

krzee

first of all, update your openvpn, www.openvpn.net/download

1)Can I use the same key for the two connections?

yes, is you enable that... but since you do not have password auth, you should not... just go make another cert/key.

2)Why is the tap adapter on the bridged connection not connected?

I dont know, i dont use bridges so im unable to support them (they are rarely needed)
