    Hey Everyone,

    Wanted to see if someone could shed some light on a good way to configure this setup. I have googled for hours and can only find info on connecting clients to the VPN or joining two networks.

    Question is: Can I join more than 2? For instance, in the tutorial located here: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/35

    That works, it's awesome.. super simple and joins 2 of my 3 networks :) I can't run another instance of OpenVPN which would seem silly anyway.

    Can someone point me in the right direction? Keep in mind the VPN is ONLY running on the gateways.. Clients access resources transparently.

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Figures I'd find it after I posted this..

    Basically to answer my own question, OpenVPN has to be running in server mode rather than connecting to each other manually..

    " To run OpenVPN in server mode you need to use TLS, so you need to create a CA and issue a key/cert for the server as well as for every openvpn client."

    Annnnd I'm off...
