[Openvpn-devel] Thanks for OpenVPN

[Manon Goo]

Hi,





I have discovered some small issues with with openvpn:
1.) ifconfig and route with non root user.
I have worked around thie with sudo by configuring


and putting
#!/bin/sh
sudo ifconfig $@





3.) Sving IP addresses (Please correct me if I am wrong with this one)
        the client ist configured

        ifconfig tun0 [local IP]  [local IP + 1 ] .....

        As far as I remember from other tun/tap setups

        ifconfig tun0 [local IP]  [tunnel end IP]  ...


        my case )) Is there any way to set this up ?





Thanks again
