A little help please. I just accidently deleted the wiki from my server. If anyone still has that page open in their web browse, please copy-paste the text and e-mail it to me. On Fri, May 11, 2012 at 4:29 PM, Tom Kent wrote: > Thanks for making that clear, it worked great...not sure why I was

Hmm, that wasn't very successful. I guess I'm not sure what you mean when you say to have open vpn use the tap interface right away. My VM has a couple tap (I assume) interfaces vibr0 vibr1 (I can make more), which say "br" in the name, but aren't actually bridged to anything physical, they are ju
