   Hello everyone!   
      
   [caution: english is not my mother tounge ;]   
   We are 4 friends and want to play games over internet. Unfortunately   
   there are many games which only support LANs.   
   My idea is to put up a VPN so we are able to play the LAN-games over   
   internet.   
      
   After a short look-around I downloaded OpenVPN, because I expect it to   
   be able to act as a VPN-server under Windows. But while I read the   
   HowTos on it's homepage and some threads in this mailing list I got more   
   and more doubtful about getting it to work.   
      
   Sad but true, the only idea i have up to this moment is, that VPNs make   
   it possible for distant machines to communicate like they are on the   
   same subnet.   
   I'm not afraid to read english HowTos, but, for example, i'm not sure   
   wether to use bridged networking or tunneling with OpenVPN..   
      
   Maybe someone can give me a few hints what the VPN i need has to look like?   
   Thx a lot for that! :)
