Title: Free Linux VPN Solution, suggestions?
Post by: dalepearson on April 15, 2009, 04:09:07 AM

Anyone know of any free VPN Software and solution that works on Linux.
I am going to be using my machine on some unsecured wireless networks in the coming weeks, and dont have any software installed at home.

I had a look at HotSpot VPN, but I am not sure if there is linux support, or free, so I would be interested to here what you guys have used?

Thanks in advance.

I like OpenVPN (http://openvpn.net/).

Nice, simple and straightforward.

This means I am going to need an OpenVPN server running back at base camp though right?

Yes, you'd need to setup the server end of it at home (same software, just need to tweak the config.).

If you're looking for something even easier, maybe have a look at LogMeIn.com (http://www.logmein.com)? Unsure of OS support though
