I've compiled
a detailed step by step explanation of how to mount your home directory on a Linux server (Debian GNU/Linux based) via a mini-VPN on your Mac. The How To uses
OpenVPN and it's marvellous client counterpart
Tunnelblick.
Here's a short summary of the steps involved:
- Download and install OpenVPN on your server.
- Configure OpenVPN on your server.
- Install and set up Samba on your server, if it's not there already.
- Start openvpn and samba.
- Download and install Tunnelblick on your Mac.
