The[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_network VPN] is implimented with[http://www.openvpn.org OpenVPN].
Installing the Babase VPN
Mac OSX
You always have the option of installing the application using the instructions on the OpenVPN [http://www.openvpn.org web site], but the easier way, if you've Mac OS X 10.3 or higher, is to use the pre-packaged OpenVPN that includes a management GUI.
Note: This will probably work for Mac OS X 10.3 or 10.4 on the PPC/Intel architecture. If you have an older version we'll have to do something else.
Go to http://www.tunnelblick.net/ and download the latest released version which will extract itself upon downloading.
Version 3.0_B4 is available[http://www.tunnelblick.net/Tunnelblick_3.0_B4.zip here]
When the program is done downloading and extracts itself, place it in your applications folder then drag the icon in the applications folder to your dock.
Open your home folder and go to Library. Then open the folder entitled openvpn.
In this folder you will need to place two files in this directory.
The[http://papio.biology.duke.edu/babasewiki/BabaseVPN?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=openvpn.conf client.conf] from below which will be named openvpn.conf
The[http://papio.biology.duke.edu/babasewiki/BabaseVPN?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=albertslab.crt albertslab.crt] from below which will retain the same name
When you run Tunnelblick you will see a little tunnel at the top right hand corner of the screen which will let you connect by selecting "Connect 'openvpn'" and disconnect with the "Disconnect 'openvpn'" commands through the graphical dropdown. It may be helpful to have tunnelblick be in your startup items so you don't have to run it every time you want to connect on computers that are typically used for ranking.
Using the Babase VPN
When you start the VPN you will be asked for your Duke Biology Unix username and password.
To test the vpn use the "ping" program to ping papio-vpn.biology.duke.edu (aka 172.16.3.1). If you get a response the VPN is working.
To connect to papio using the VPN you cannot use papio.biology.duke.edu. Use papio-vpn.biology.duke.edu (172.16.3.1) instead.
