    hi folks,

    while pfsense seems to be a class a product, the doc really needs
    work IMHO.

    There is an article which points out that OpenVPN is disabled currently
    due to problems with OPT Interfaces, but thats no problem for me
    since i want to use it for roadwarriors on my WAN interface.

    To activate OpenVPN, we should set the "developers tag" in config.xml
    as written here:
    http://faq.pfsense.org/index.php?action=artikel&cat=6&id=72&artlang=en&highlight=openvpn

    But how to do that? I know how to use vi to edit the file, but what
    exactly should i write? I cant find any pre-existing tag with the
    name "developer" or whatever…

    If i get OpenVPN with my roadwarrios to work i will submit a better
    doc than the existing.

    thanks

      The faq article is outdetad. We need to delete that. You don't need to enable openvpn with a hidden config.xml tag. Please upgrade to the latest snapshot ( http://pfsense.com/~sullrich/1.0-SNAPSHOT-09-18-06/ ) and retry following the openvpn documentation at http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Setting_up_OpenVPN_with_pfSense

        I am having the same issue and have recently upgraded to R3 with no help.  I also tried downloading the latest snapshot but the images arent available from the link.  Any ideas?
