Re: [Openvpn-users] openvpn and client ip

[Fabio <fabio.marcone@xxxxxxx>]

thanks for your replies!

ok, I read faq page and Jon reply but I don't understand the cause of this 
method. 
- linux and windows manage ptp connection in different ways?
	I think data are sent in network order in both OS, where is the difference?

In faq page I read "...due to the limitation of the TAP-Win32 driver's TUN 
emulation mode.": can you explain me this limitation? can you give me other 
informations about it?

Very very thanks,
Fabio
