Re: [Openvpn-users] OpenVPN commercial license?

Hello

We are a small firm looking to incorporate OpenVPN into our network
appliance, the appliance is basically a web frontend to manage multiple
open source networking tools including OpenVPN.

As we are looking to sell commercially, do we need to purchase a
commercial license for OpenVPN, if so, how and where would we find the
pricing etc..?

We are not making any changes to the OpenVPN code itself, we just use
the software and it is managed by our own we frontend.

Any help is appreciated.

As long as you put the OpenVPN source somewhere along the distribution in some form (unperverted)
then you can sell it for as much as you like. Since you aren't doing any modifications to it, there really
shouldn't be any harm for your business to include the sources you used to build openvpn since they already
are available from other sources.
