You iptables firewall rules might become complex, however, depending on how you've set up Openswan and Openvpn on A. -- Dale Dellutri <ddelQQQlutr@panQQQix.com> (lose the Q's)

I have no real idea since I have never used openswan, but you will probably have to use different ports ( rather than 1194) on some of those connections. Is A the host? Ie, is A the one the others are connecting to, of is A the one that is doing the connecting to the others?
