I have compiled openvpn and vtun on both the Machines Now I have a question
please any body anwser this:

Box 1 Ip Address : 66.xxx.xxxx.124/127 this is Static pool of IP
Box 2 Ip Address : 192.168.1.101 (local) and DSL(24.xxx.xxx.10  this is
Dynamic)

I have use the SSH Keys for the same and also configured for Passwordless
Authentication.
These are my openvpn.conf files
Box 1
========
dev tun
port 5000
#comp-lzo
#ping 15
verb 3
#shaper 1000
remote 24.xxx.xxx.145
ifconfig  66.xxx.xxx.123 66.xxx.xxx.124
#up /home/openvpn/bin/ip-up.sh
#down /home/openvpn/bin/ip-down.sh

#Using Pre-Shared Secret Key.
secret /root/certificates/temp.key

Box 2
==============
dev tun
port 5000
#comp-lzo
#ping 15
verb 3
#shaper 1000
remote 66.xxx.xxx.123
ifconfig  192.168.1.101 192.168.1.102
#up /home/openvpn/bin/ip-up.sh
#down /home/openvpn/bin/ip-down.sh

#Using Pre-Shared Secret Key.
secret /root/certificates/temp.key

The above example is found from Google and from openvpn site.
I don;t know what these two file should contain i dont have them and that is
why they are commented.
#up /home/openvpn/bin/ip-up.sh
#down /home/openvpn/bin/ip-down.sh

Now when i start
openvpn --config openvpn.conf from both the machines They both goes to the
halt stage and nothing happens after.

I just want to know what ips should and the seuquence i have a confusion
there .
Can anybody please correct it  the conf file by replacing them to the Right
place.

Regards,
Tina.
