    Did you try out the OpenVPN wizard in Pfsense?
    I had mine working in minutes.

    I need to set up. Thanks for reminding me. I paid for a year of service
    from Private Internet Access ($40!) and am using it on my personal machine.

    I should do that this weekend. It's not hard. I could add access for
    Andrew so he can look at the BBS if needed also.

    You define the users, run the wizard, then give Andrew the Opvn file he then can import into his Openvpn client.

    I can't remember but I think it also automatically creates the inbound rule.

    It does all of the heavy lifting for you.

    I'm just not entirely sold on the idea by some techs that one "should have" a Pfsense appliance as opposed to having it run on a typical name brand
    off the shelf server system or a decent high-end workstation.
