+ # How can I connect Windows XP to a Linux-based Samba server using routing rather than bridging?
+
+ * internal net: 192.168.1.0/24
+ * samba server: 192.168.1.5
+ * gateway 192.168.1.1
+ * windows xp: dialup networking
+
+ server config on linux gateway:
+
+ ```
+ dev tun0
+ ifconfig 192.168.5.6 192.168.5.5 <-- openvpn-net
+ port 12345
+ verb 1
+ local 123.123.123.12 <-- official server ip address
+ user nobody
+ group nogroup
+ secret /etc/openvpn/key
+ tun-mtu 1500
+ daemon
+ ```
+
+ open port 12345 on the firewall on server (gateway)
+
+ on windows xp:
+
+ 1. Go to windows network panel.
+ 1. Set the windows tap-device from application control to always connected.
+ 1. Set the ip address to 192.168.5.5 netmask 255.255.255.252.
+ 1. Leave DNS and gateway empty.
+
+ openvpn config on Windows XP:
+
+ ```
+ dev tun0
+ ifconfig 192.168.5.5 192.168.5.6 <-- openvpn-net
+ port 12345
+ ip-win32 manual
+ verb 1
+ remote 123.123.123.12 <-- official server ip address
+ secret C:\programme\openvpn\config\key
+ tun-mtu 1500
+ ping 30
+ ```
+
+ create a batch file:
+
+ ```
+ route add 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.5.6
+ ping 192.168.1.5
+ net use g: \\192.168.1.5\Daten /USER:user1 <-- your account on samba!!
+ ```
+
+ After connecting to the internet, start the batch file
+ and enter the password for samba.
+
+ Viola, now you have the service Daten on drive g:.
+
+ Now you can set the service openvpn to start automatically
+ and only start the batch file
+ after internet connection.
