Pal,

Firstly, you are asking about the wrong software. Tunnel and Transport
mode, are the 2 modes of operation of ipsec. OpenVPN is not an ipsec
implementation, it's a whole different kind of vpn (much better, in my
opinion), based on SSL. Secondly, if you have technical problems with
openvpn, the devel list is NOT the place to ask. There is a
openvpn-users list, for this kind of question.

My regards,
