Hi Flip, I now managed to install all files so that they "survive" a reboot. Also I have been able to adjust the server.conf file of OpenVPN to the NAS requirements and a simple startup-script is also under way. I built the required keys and certificates on my linux box and copied them to the new configuration folder. So far so good... Now I have hit a problem which I cannot overcome. It seems that the kernel module for the TUN device is missing, which is required for OpenVPN. Can you give me a hint on how to build / get it? Here's what I get: root@tuxbox:/system/overlay/rc.d # ./S50OpenVPN.sh starting OpenVPN ...
