how to connect servers openvpn on windows

[cergius]

Hello
to better understand me see the picture below, both the client and the server will be on Windows XP



As you can see in the image I need to connect three sites (central office and branches) each other of a company, but at the same time I need each site be accesed by a roadwarrior, then I think that every office should have an OpenVPN server to accept a roadwarrior connection and also that exists connection between all servers so my question is

Is it okay to create several servers for this case?
How can I connect several servers?

I could install only one server in the central office and in the branches install clients, but I don't know how to configure for clients openvpn installed at branches provide access to their own roadwarrior clients to their respective lan
Does anyone know how to do that?
I wait your answers, thanks

road warriors would simply be more clients

hi cergius,

i think its better for you to break down the problem..

it needs special planning before you begin setting it up,
because i dont know your expirience on ip routing issues i will tell you the following.

1)i believe that each site belongs to a different ip subnet,
2)openvpn treats lan to lan connections like simple vpn users (the differrence is really
an additional statement inside ccd files --look for iroute)
3)you can have only one server and if you plan routing correctly you can connect
to whatever site you like (look for client-to-client)
if you deploy one server and your internet connection fails then all vpns are down..

i am happy to hear your thoughts and assist.

michael.
