Re: DD-WRT and OpenVPN

      long ago, it's a pain, but I've sort of got it working (with some
      caveats).
      I used tinyca to generate the certs, quick google finds many
      how-to's for this.  I can give you the rest of the dd-wrt settings
      I have setup to make it work on mine.  Using
      networkmanager-plugin-openvpn works nicely here to connect.
      Caveat I can't seem to make work is getting dnsmasq to respond on
      another vpn subnet I'm routing as well, as I split a separate
      subnet for vpn users.  Downside is it breaks dns resolution when
      connecting, so not viable for full remote access, but I'm usually
      just rsyncing files to my filer at home anyways.  
      I also couldn't figure out how to get a working ovpn file to deal
      with a windoze box connecting.  Linux works fine, I tell my
      windoze-using friends no file access for them.
      It otherwise works just fine connecting to hosts in the main local
      vlan subnet, and I can route to the internet if I override my
      resolv.conf manually for dns until I play with dnsmasq again. 
      Everything I did seemed to break it from working at all.
      There is some sore documentation here around this for sure.  I
      never made it fully work to bother fully documenting myself.

      I've got a router running DD-WRT and I'd like to enable the
      OpenVPN feature on it. But, I'm a little confused with the
      configuration mostly in the category of "additional config". While
      I've found a few blog posts on configs, it's unclear what the
      defaults are and if they're actually sane defaults for my (super
      simple) VPN needs. Has anyone looked into this and have
      recommendations on what good defaults are there? I mostly want to
      connect with devices/machines running Network Manager, so I have a
      good deal of configurability available.
      Thanks,
