Solaris 10 - vpn server

I would like to setup my solaris 10 x86 system as a vpn server. I can't seem to find any good links on setting it up. Do you guys have some links that could walk me thru on setting up the vpn server so that windows clients can connect to it?

OpenVPN runs on Solaris - check out the HOWTOs pages. HTH.

I am trying to install openvpn-2.0.9 but I keep encountering this problem during the configure:

Code:
configure: checking for OpenSSL Crypto Library and Header files...
checking openssl/evp.h usability... no
checking openssl/evp.h presence... no
checking for openssl/evp.h... no
<B>configure: error: OpenSSL Crypto headers not found.</B>

I have openssl installed. I have also tried this:
Code:
./configure --with-ssl-headers=/usr/local/ssl/include/openssl --with-ssl-lib=/usr/local/ssl/lib

But still, I keep getting that error (crypto headers not found).

I just completed this same install - did you figure it out? Let me know if you need any help.

One point would be to drop the /openssl in your --with-ssl-headers path. That will allow your configure to complete properly.
