I'm trying to create one "client.ovpn" file for all networking situations.
This is because I run OpenVPN on winXP-SP2 as non-admin user.
# Are we connecting to a TCP or
# UDP server? Use the same setting as
# on the server.
;proto tcp
proto udp
# The hostname/IP and port of the server.
# You can have multiple remote entries
# to load balance between the servers.
remote my.server.net 1194
remote server 11194
remote my.server.net 443
With this (current) scheme I have to use "runas" to edit "client.ovpn" on
the fly to switch from UDP to TCP.
What about making it this way:
# The hostname/IP and port of the server.
# You can have multiple remote entries
# to load balance between the servers.
remote my.server.net 1194/udp
remote server 11194/udp
remote my.server.net 443/tcp
Then, if server has three instances of corresponding configs - it would be
possible to avoid editing client's configs.
My goal is to penetrate tightly filtered perimeters where only proxyed
HTTP and HTTPS are allowed.
Please comment.
