IMPORTANT NOTE FOR VISTA USERS
|
|
|
|
Note that on Windows Vista, you will need to run the OpenVPN
|
|
GUI with administrator privileges, so that it can add routes
|
|
to the routing table that are pulled from the OpenVPN server.
|
|
You can do this by right-clicking on the OpenVPN GUI
|
|
desktop icon, and selecting "Run as administrator".
|
|
|
|
GENERAL QUICKSTART FOR WINDOWS
|
|
|
|
The OpenVPN Client requires a configuration file
|
|
and key/certificate files. You should obtain
|
|
these and save them to \Program Files\OpenVPN\config.
|
|
|
|
To start OpenVPN, first run the OpenVPN GUI by double
|
|
clicking on the desktop icon or start menu icon.
|
|
|
|
The OpenVPN GUI is a system-tray applet, so an icon for the
|
|
GUI will appear in the lower-right corner of the screen.
|
|
Right click on the system tray icon, and a menu should appear
|
|
showing the names of your OpenVPN configuration files, and
|
|
giving you the option to connect.
