You should obtain +these and save them to \Program Files\OpenVPN\config. + +To start OpenVPN, first run the OpenVPN GUI by double +clicking the desktop icon. Note that on Windows Vista, +you will probably need to run the OpenVPN GUI with +administrator privileges, so that it can add routes to +the routing table that are pulled from the OpenVPN server. +You can do this by right clicking on the OpenVPN GUI +desktop icon, and selecting "Run as administrator". + +The OpenVPN GUI is a system-tray applet, so an icon for the +GUI will appear in the lower-right corner of the screen. +Right click on the system tray icon, and a menu should appear +showing the names of your OpenVPN configuration files, and +giving you the option to connect. |
