Works like a charm, but:
        - create custom kernel (TAP/TUN) 
        - compile OpenVPN from source (no problems)

FAQs/Docs are quite sufficient for connecting networks.

Beware of using static keys - removing one road warrior means having to
reconfigure ALL systems in the VPN. Use certificates instead (see the
excellent OpenVPN HowTo). For static key problematics see

Speaking of: I'm contemplating offering boxed "ETHERNET over IP" VPN
router/access devices (i.e. supporting IP, IPX, SNA, full DHCP/BootP,
etc. - obviously not using IPSec but OpenVPN) at a target price around
500 EUR. Thought and opinions to me in private mail for not to clobber
the list.

Thanks
