Hi all,
I'm wondering if I can get a little assistance. I'm working on a little project for work, but only have limited knowledge of VPN as few of our customers use it and those that do use expensive solutions like Fortinet etc.
What my problem is, we have a main "shop" with all of our servers and computers located in. We have just procured a new office for some of us to work from, but the servers are staying on the "shop" due to there being a small air conditioned room at the back used to keep the servers cool. So, we need a quick and cheap way of allowing us to stay on the domain from the new office.
I know that we could just setup VPN's from the machines at the new office to the server at work, but then they wouldn't be on the domain. I need to know if there's anything we can use (that's cheap as chips, we're a small business) that can keep a connection between the server in the shop and the network in the new office so all of the machines can connect to the domain without dialling up?
So I have had a quick look around and seen OpenVPN mentioned a few times, but I'm not sure if it's what I need. Their website seems to severely lack information about what it can do (either that or I'm tired and can't see it).
Is there any other solutions which could help? Any assistance or pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
