I'm actually sending this email from a WiFi internet cafe in my hometown
(Boulder, Colorado, USA), on my XP laptop, connected by OpenVPN ethernet
bridge to my Linux box and network at home, and everything is working great
(the cafe WiFi router NATs clients onto the internet). I'm running the new
OpenVPN 1.5-beta1 which runs on Windows. I can run X, access windows network
shares, or do anything else that a directly connected machine could do. In
fact, during this time, I set up a friend in North Carolina to also bridge
into my network via OpenVPN, we set the whole thing up via chat, and we had a
3-way bridged ethernet WAN with 2 Windows machines (one on wireless, one on
cable modem) and one Linux 2.4.21 box. Pretty cool.
