Start: 2008/04/08 - 7:30pm End: 2008/04/08 - 9:00pm Location: O'Reilly, Sebastopol, CA http://nblug.org/genloc Speaker: Bob Blick Description: OpenVPN - Adding Trust to Untrusted Networks Virtual Private Networks allow you to connect two networks securely. A traveler with a laptop frequently uses a random internet connection but wants to connect securely to a home or office network. Traditional solutions are not well suited to the random connections of the traveler with a laptop. OpenVPN is a versatile cross-platform open source solution that's easy to set up. This presentation will have an overview of the lingo and components of VPN and a how-to demonstration of an OpenVPN server and laptop client. -- Kyle Rankin NBLUG President The North Bay Linux Users Group http://nblug.org IRC: greenfly(a)irc.freenode.net #nblug kyle(a)nblug.org
