I'm still using ClearOS 5.2 in a production environment. Lately we've had some road warriors that need VPN access back to our network, and have requested that I make the implementation. So I figured I'd give the OpenVPN module a trial. I'm not experienced in it's configuration, but here's what I've done thus far:
[ol]Installed a second NIC and assigned a static public IP to it.[/ol]
[ol]Configured OpenVPN per the instructions here: http://www.clearcenter.com/support/documentation/clearos_enterprise_5.2/user_guide/openvpn[/ol]
[ol]Downloaded the latest OpenVPN Client and installed on a windows client[/ol]
[ol]Firewall rule created via Webconfig to allow incoming UDP on port 1194[/ol]
Now it took me some time to realize that there wasn't a config folder in the default installation folder for the client. Instead all the certificate and key files had to be in the same folder that the config file is in, then simply use the + button in the client to import the config.
