I noticed that there is now a plugin for Boxee for VPN access with openvpn. Is this something that can be easily ported across to an XBMC plugin?

[linuxluemmel]

Realy ...
it is a nice frontend for the command-line easy to make

[paulbarnett]

And my first reply is by the man who made it....Congratulations. Is it possible for you to make for xbmc then?

I would be interested in this too...

[linuxluemmel]

I had a lot to do in the last past days.. (??er-script ... ??)
From my work as system-engineer I know openvpn very well ...
If you make a single point-point connection with a single psk
this is done in few moments ....

There should be no problen to make the right command with a nice looking
GUI inside xbmc. I made allreday some expirience with comand-line calls
from xbmc (LOL)


If the intresst is there ... I will make a openvpn gui frontend for
xbmc .... but just a single connection with a preshared-key

- No ssl-certs
- just KISS -> Keep it simple stupid ... LOL


OK Greetings from switzerland ....
Hans


BTW I do work on the ........... script 0.5a


Edit : I use openvpn allmost every day, because most firewall at my customers block my connections to my home ....
therefore openvpn is my friend ,,,,,

I'm assuming this won't work on the xbox platform. Correct?

btw, why no support for ssl-cert? Would it be to difficult to implement?

[linuxluemmel]

linux
no windows / no mac-os / no xbox

seamply to say ... only Linux

This time ... only linux sorry ..

[paulbarnett]

Sounds good so far. I already have a Witopia account and use it all the time on my Linux mint 7. Can we implement using keys that have obviously been purchased so we can link to the conf file as usual. therefore we can have UK and USA etc etc?

Keep up the great work.

Anybody have a copy of this? I can't find the code on that link.

Just wondering if there has been any progress on this... It would be a great to have something similar to Boxee

[moontan77]

yep any update/progress on this?

[moontan77]

looks like this is dead in the water then

[moontan77]

anyone know of any solution for starting and stopping openvpn servers from within xbmc?

[casatech]

An openvpn plugin or script would be excellent. So is there any news on this script.
