You will need to ensure that the following line is UNCOMMENTED # Uncomment the next line to enable packet forwarding for IPv4 Now we will need to set the system to enable IP Forwarding between the interfaces, in order to do this you will need to edit the following file: $ sudo vi /etc/nf Set the Secondary card on a separate Subnet of your choice, I have used 192.168.99.* in this example in the following example I am using eth0 and eth1 # The primary network interface *WAN* Set primary network card to access the Internet with the following entries (likely already set like this as the default is to use DHCP) depending on your setup you may notice that your interfaces are name differently, so set them accordingly.

Use the following command to edit the Network Interfaces: (I have used vi as the editor, but you can substitute this with your preferred editor) $ sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces One card will be the Primary Internet (WAN) access and the other will be the Secondary (LAN) access You will now need to setup your 2 network cards.

I chose to use Ubuntu Server because of my experience of using Unix systems and I did not need a GUI interface and wanted to keep the virtual machine footprint as small as possible, but you could also use the Ubuntu or any Debian based Linux installation to perform this function if you have a particular preference. I will not go through the entire process of installing the Ubuntu Server as I trust that if you are confident with looking at this approach, you should be comfortable with the process of downloading and installing Ubuntu or have the ability to follow any number of walkthrough installation procedures available by searching the Internet. If you are looking for an Open Source Virtualisation product then I know that a lot of people use and recommend Oracle VirtualBoxĮnsure that you create your virtual machine with 2 network cards as this will be required in order to perform the required routing and OpenVPN tunnel.

Personally, I am using VMware Fusion on my iMAC, but there are a number of alternative approaches for getting a virtual machine running on your desired machine, bearing in mind that you should have sufficient processing and memory capacity to sustain the running of the virtual machine.

I decided to approach this in a totally different way by installing a Virtual Machine with Ubuntu Server 12.04.4 LTS as follows: I hope I haven’t kept anyone waiting too long for this solution, but here is how I got over the slow OpenVPN connection problem that I was experiencing in my blog post:
