Well.. routing its not what i've asked, since i need bridging.
Anyway, thanks for answering.

I need to bridge two interfaces together, in orden to make them work
with OpenVPN.

Routing won't do the trick, because the two interfaces will be under the
same subnet.

I've tried etherbrigde (
http://www.ntkernel.com/utilities/etherbridge.shtml ) with no success.

Any clues?
