OpenVPN 2.0 released!

Submitted by John Locke on Mon, 04/18/2005 - 23:37

At Freelock Computing, we've been using OpenVPN regularly for the last year and a half, both in house and at client sites, and we're huge fans. It's easy to administer, has a variety of security options, and no vulnerabilities have been found to date. It's fast, extremely flexible, and can be set up in site-to-site or road warrior configurations.

Version 2.0 was released on Sunday, after a year or so of being in beta. Version 2.0 makes it possible to tunnel an unlimited number of connections through a single UDP or TCP port--in previous versions, you had to set up one port per connection. OpenVPN Download.

There's a task bar manager for Windows, which makes it super simple to connect and disconnect to pre-configured remote machines. For hints installing in Windows so a non Administrator can start and stop the tunnel, see this page.

What a pleasure to work with Freelock in launching our family website for the West Seattle community. John and Jill were vital to our success.

Communication and support are out of this world impressive with the Freelock team and set the standard for the industry. On time and in budget. Freelock is the clear choice.
