Tincd and OpenVPN on the same linux box

[Lance Fredrickson]

I run a small cluster of routers using tinc in routed mode, and all my 
roaming clients also can connect using tinc.  Sometimes however I have 
the need to connect to a particular network using a bridged VPN.  For 
this I use OpenVPN in bridged mode, and connect directly to the one 
network directly for that need.  The cool thing too is that your can 
tell OpenVPN to push your tinc routes, so you can still have access to 
the mesh through the OpenVPN connection.
