OpenVPN client HowTo

[lollapalooza]

I've got a router with OpenVPN server in the remote site (my parent's house), and a WNDR3700V2 with Gargoyle 1.8.1 at local site (my home).

By using OpenVPN client on my PC, I can safely log in to the remote router, so config is fine.

In OpenVPN client config folder I've got 4 files:
ca.crt
client.crt
client.key
client.ovpn (* - see below)

I don't need to enter any password: auth is granted only via certificate.

How do I configure Gargoyle OpenVPN client in order to connect to my parent's home?

Here follows content of client.ovpn file

Code: Select all

client
dev tap
proto udp
dev-node NETGEAR-VPN
remote xxx.xxx.com 12974
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
ca ca.crt
cert client.crt
key client.key
cipher AES-128-CBC
comp-lzo
verb 5
