Hi Eric,

I did something similar on Bering-uClibc 3.0.1 a while back, albeit
using OpenSwan (ipsec.lrp) rather than OpenVPN. One of my WAN addresses
was effectively static though - I don't know how you'll get on if *both*
addresses are dynamic. Maybe if you use a dynamic DNS service you can
define the configuration with names rather than IP addresses... ?

I set up the two networks to have different "loc" network addresses at
each site - 192.168.1.0/24 at one location and 192.168.11.0/24 at the
other - and configured OpenSwan to provide a tunnel which routed between
them. Clients at each site could connect transparently to clients at the
other site. It all worked fine, but was a bit slow since I was using
ADSL with 2Mb/s of download bandwidth but only 256Kb/s of upload
bandwidth at each location.

I've now torn down this installation since it was no longer required,
but I think I've still got copies of my config files somewhere. I forget
why I chose to go down the IPsec (OpenSwan) route rather than the
SSL/TLS (OpenVPN) route - any particular reason why you're looking at
OpenVPN rather than OpenSwan?

There's some documentation on both options in the Bering-uClibc User's
Guide: http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/buc-user.html
