OpenVPN before logon

Postby topfire » Sun Aug 12, 2012 10:10 am

Hey guys
A re-install fixed all my problems but now I'm trying to figure out how I can VPN before I logon so I can logon to the domain?
If not I get errors saying its not available and that :roll:
Any ideas?
Thanks
Jamie

You need to provide more details. What are you using for a client? Can you explain the scenario?

There is just not enough details to understand your question.

Sorry,
When away from home and wanting to logon to the domain it will not let me as I am not connected in the same LAN as the server, so VPN should fix this but I can't open it before login on, I'm using the HDAConnect 3.
Does that help?
Thanks
Jamie

There was an issue being on the same subnet and trying to VPN at one time. That may still exist. It is a shortfall of OpenVPN, not Amahi.

I am not sure I understand what you mean access the domain before login. When using HDAConnect, you login using your normal HDA credentials, then access shares or apps. You may have to use fully qualified name for apps, ie. adminer.home.com or whatever your domain is on the HDA.

Recommend you try the VPN troubleshooter in the wiki.

Sorry,
I've Made a Domain Controller in Amahi, thats all setup and so are the computers.
I can connect to my account on the Amahi Domain while at home but to access it while out or away I can't without VPN
I need to VPN before I logon to Amahi Domain on my windows computer or else I get a error
Is there anyway I can setup HDAConnect 3 to connect before I logon so I can login to the Domain?
Thanks
Jamie

HDAConnect will not work with PDC I do not believe. I am unsure if it is even possible to remote in as you desire. If you did not see anything in the wiki, then this might be new ground.

Maybe there is someone out there who has been doing it and can help.
