Re: OpenVPN and ISA 2004

so what you are saying this is that there is no way to get this
working through ISA 2004?

OpenVPN does not use IPSec or PPTP, but rather uses SSL to encrypt the
traffic. It is not an "SSL-VPN" that uses a browser, such as Whale.
Since SSL is not an 'odd-ball' encryption standard and since openvpn
has made their code available for perusal, it is actually a very open
system.

You should be able to get openvpn working through ISA 2004. You
should check that the OpenVPN server is actually using port 1194, as
it can be changed. You should also check that your certificate is
valid for their server and that your client configuration file is
appropriate for their server. Can you see the traffic getting
stopped by the firewall? It seems like there are a lot of other
things that could be going wrong besides the firewall. Can the user
open a connection to the OpenVPN server from outside your firewall?

HTH,

Nick
