Okay, I am still trying to get OpenVPN to run on my limited user account.
I have followed this help guide:
[URL="http://openvpn.se/files/howto/openvpn-howto_run_openvpn_as_nonadmin-Rev1.1.html"]
openvpn.se/.../URL]
I have also installed the OpenVPN 2.1_rc7 -- released on 2008.01.29 from:
http://openvpn.net/index.php/downloads.html
then I replaced the Config folder in this install with the one from my Astaro SSL VPN package config folder files. I was able to connect with my Admin login just fine (actually it connected faster with this OpenVPN version than the Astaro version)
I used the subinacl.exe utility included in the Windows Resource Kit method. I was able to get the Service to run on my Limited user account, but now how do I get the VPN to prompt me for my username and password as if I was running it under my admin account? Any ideas anyone?? I am lost on this.
I rather NOT have to use the "RunAs" function on my limited user account, because giving the program that controls my MAIN connection to internet Admin rights on a Limited User account makes me weary. Hence someone compromises the VPN application and they now have possibly escalated their rights on my limited user account via the OpenVPN application.... kind of defeats the purpose of a limited user account imo.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for the great product. [:)]
