[Openvpn-users] Bridged LANS behind firewalls

["David Shields" <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK, can anyone suggest a pair of config files for the following:

Site 1: (Head Office)
OpenVPN on Win2K box sat in a LAN on 192.168.6.10 - LAN is of course class C
192.168.6
LAN connected to internet via firewall gateway at 192.168.6.1
External IP is static a.b.c.d


Site 2: (Client Site)
OpenVPN on WinXP box sat in a LAN on 192.168.6.50
LAN connected to internet via firewall gateway at 192.168.6.5. ISP allocates
dynamic address.

Client need to 'join' Head office network on bridged connections - needs to
be part of windows network with all the crap that goes with it (basically
need mapped network drives for a certain app).

Can anyone suggest a pair of config files for this? And do I need to bridge
the TAP and Eth adapters in windows ? If so, how do I do this (assume I am
very very stupid for this one)

If I need to re-address one of the subnets this is no big deal - head office
could go 192.168.9.x in 10 minutes - but I thought if I did this browser
lists etc would break.

If you want to point me at a *simple* bridged win32 howto for joining
networks, thats fine - no point reinventing the wheel.

Many thanks in advance for what Im sure is a frequently asked question (but
I havent yet found one that meets it).

David
