Description

smeserver-openvpn-s2s lets you inter-connect several SME servers, and their local networks with secure VPN. It uses OpenVPN as backend.

Requirements

  • SME Server 7.X / 8.X

Installation

  • install the rpms
yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-openvpn-s2s


Configuration

This contrib lets you create as many servers and clients daemon. A server can only be used by one client (it's not a one server for multiple clients solution), so if you wan't to connect several SME to one central server, you'll need to create several server daemon, binding on different ports. Once conected, OpenVPN makes no difference between client and server, we just need to define which endpoint will bind on a local port waiting for a connection of the remote endpoint.
