For upgrading clients openvpn, you have one of two choices. You could either deploy the upgrades through a deployment program and it updates automatically whenever they connect to the network or you can get the employees to run the update - it will only take them two minutes and give them a local username and password.My preference would be to deploy the update. I use Windows Package Publisher which works through WSUS to update software on the clients.If you need to update the config files, a startup script would solve this.If you having to clear the cache all the time (is this DNS cache, route cache) then there is something wrong with your config. My clients seem to have no issues.
Contents.BackgroundPelago is a web design and development agency in Santa Barbara, California. Since our humble beginnings in August of 2000, we’ve seen the Internet landscape evolve exponentially in the last nine years.
Our most current challenge as a creative and engineering agency is in embracing diversity in platforms and the inevitable shift towards the remote office. We use three different operating systems — Windows, OS X and Linux — on a daily basis. In addition to developing web-based project management software that is compatible with all three platforms, our designers and developers rely on them inside and outside of the office. Tunneling through the firewall from outside the office was our next requirement for embracing a diverse and distributed remote office.Our SonicWall router makes it easy enough to establish a VPN connection using Windows. There is a client that can be downloaded from the SonicWall web site.

What about other operating systems? Our developers often use Ubuntu Linux from home and required a way to VPN into the office. Once established, a VPN connection allows access to development servers, remote desktops, and other network resources inside the firewall; so you can see why it would be essential for the remote office.The problem, as most Linux users out there already know, is that setting up a VPN connection in Ubuntu Linux is not very easy. After much trial and error, here is how we got the VPN working on Ubuntu Linux using Openswan.
Configuring the SonicWall RouterLogin to your SonicWall router admin and make the following adjustments to the VPN settings. Click on the VPN link and note the Unique Firewall Identifier for your SonicWall router. You will need it later for the value.
