OpenVPN Server on Debian Squeeze?

Hi,

I saw this howto Set Up OpenVPN Server With Authentication Against OpenLDAP On Debian 6.0 (Squeeze) and was wondering if its possible to install OpenVPN without OpenLDAP?

 

yes, you can install OpenVPN without OpenLDAP. Btw, whats your goal?

 

My dedicated web server is located in a remote location. I would like to setup so I can connect to it and use it for various tasks.

 

You would find various documents at http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/

Hope this helps.

 

Is there anything in the above tutorial that can be skipped in order to install OpenVPN?

 

Howto

Micko, I work for a company that configures VPNs server so I can refer you to a tutorial we wrote that is a bit shorter and goes straight to what you need: http://www.serverubuntu.it/openvpn-bridge-configuration

 

Thank you! That's what I was looking for. When I find some free time I'll give it a try and post back results here.
