Tony,

OpenVPN will use the currently active adapter. If you're dial up at the time, I'll use that, if your lan, it'll then use that. Not really sure what would happen if you were both, but my guess is it would your whatever your default route was set to at the time.

Hi All,

   I am working with the Windows version of OpenVPN-1.6.0.

   In my network connections, I have two Ethernet adapters
and one Ethernet dialer (modem).  This makes for three
"phisical" network adapters.

   After installing OpenVPN, I now have a new "virtual" network
adapter (TAP-Win32 Adapter) to run my tunnel through.

   Question:  how does OpenVPN know to tell my virtual,
TAP-Win32 Adapter which "physical" adapter to use?

    I am confused.  :-[

Many thanks,
