Re: VPN acces to VPC
Some notes on VPN: 1) if you route ALL traffic over VPC/VPN (Windows, checked box: Use default gateway on remote network) - you looose internet conectivity (not so much of a problem) - but the issue is that your VPN client (Windows in my case) does NOT get normal routes to the internal networks in VPC - it relies on routing ALL traffic to this VPC-VPN...in order to reach your VMs... 2) If you DON'T route all traffic over VPC/VPN - your are NOT able to access any of the VMs, since as I said, you do NOT get normal routes for each Network inside VPC (actually, you don't get ANY routes so to speak...) So, this (Windows) tutorial is OK, but without last step (Use deafault gateway on remote network): https://support.getcloudservices.com/entries/22001616-CloudStack-Configure-Windows-7-for-VPN-Access Hope that helps...

How do others connect to their clouds? Honestly, I'm a little suprised no one has replied, I'm sure everyone would want to access their VMs. I would just like to know how, as currently I'm struggling. Regards, Jon
