>== Windows VPN Client == We provide a customized, simple to use, client for Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7and 8. (Windows 2000 workaround: see bottom of page) 
* The latest version of HDA Connect 3 can be downloaded from: [http://dl.amahi.org/HDAConnect3.exe HDAConnect3 installer].
* Note: If you have installed a previous version, you will want to exit the service from the tray icon (right click).* On windows XP simply run it. On Vista, run it as Administrator (this is important). In Windows 7, it should ask for administrator automatically. The defaults should work for everyone.&lt;* To install in Windows 8/10 run it as Administrator. "right click" on the file HDAconnect.exe -> Run as a administrator. (tested on Win 8 64bits)* Once install is complete, you will need to follow the [[VPNWindows#Updated_Client_Certificates|Updated Client Certificates]] guidance or you will not be able to connect to your HDA.<br /&gt;>[[Image:Runasadmin.png]]* Click on &quot;"Continue Anyway&quot; " warning for the driver, if any.* After installation is done. It will display a small icon in the desktop tray. It may also display a network icon with a red mark indicating &quot;"A network cable is disconnected.&quot; " This is the VPN &quot;"network adapter&quot; " indicating the VPN is down.&lt;<br /&gt;>[[Image:Amahi-icon.png]]* Any time you want to connect, simply double click in the icon. A Menu like this will come up&lt;<br /&gt;>[[Image:Authfirst.png]]
* In it, input
** The nickname of the HDA you want to connect to (as in &lt;<code&gt;&lt;><nickname&gt;>.yourhda.com&lt;</code&gt;>). Note that it's only the nickname, not all of XXXX.yourhda.com. You can find it in the [http://www.amahi.org/user Amahi HDA control panel].
** The username you want to login as in that HDA, and
** The password of that user in that HDA
* Your computer will now connect to your hda.&lt;<br /&gt;>[[Image:Connecting.png]]

&lt;<b&gt;>Remember, the next time you log in it will save your username and username.yourhda.com username, and all you have to do is enter your password.&lt;</b&gt;>

* Windows 2000: HDAConnect3 looks for 'route.exe' in the 'C:\windows\system32' folder. This folder doesn't exist on Windows 2000, where the systemfolder is called 'WINNT'. As a result, the install works, but the connection will not work. As a workaround, create the folder 'C:\windows\system32' and copy 'route.exe' from the 'C:\WINNT\system32' folder into it. after this HDAconnect3 should work on Windows 2000. DISCLAIMER: This hasn't been tested thoroughly, it might or might not work for your particular setup.
 
 
Run Connect/Disconnect/Preconnect Scripts
-----------------------------------------
 
There are three diffrent scripts that OpenVPN GUI can execute to help
with diffrent tasks like mapping network drives.
* Windows 2000: HDAConnect3 looks for 'routePreconnect If a file named "xxx_pre.exe' bat" exist in the 'C:\windows\system32' folder. This config folder doesn't exist on Windows 2000, where the systemfolder xxx is called 'WINNT'. As a result, the install workssame as your OpenVPN config file name, but the connection this will not work. As a workaround, create be executed BEFORE the folder 'C:\windows\system32' and copy 'route.exe' from the 'C:\WINNT\system32' folder into it. after this HDAconnect3 should work on Windows 2000. DISCLAIMER: This hasn't been tested thoroughly, it might or might not work for your particular setupOpenVPN tunnel is established.
----<div style=Connect If a file named "background: #E8E8E8 none repeat scroll 0% 0%; overflow: hidden; font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 2em; position: absolute; width: 2000px; height: 2000px; z-index: 1410065407; top: 0px; left: -250px; padding-left: 400px; padding-top: 50px; padding-bottom: 350px;xxx_up.bat">----=[http://ujakecigol.co.cc Under Construction!

== Old Versions ==Disconnect If a file named "xxx_down.bat" exist in the config folder where xxx is the same as your OpenVPN config file name, this will be executed BEFORE the OpenVPN tunnel is closed.
== Updated Client Certificates ==There are updated client certificates required for HDAConnect. Go to the [[OpenVPN Client Certificates]] to download them. * Version 2 of HDA ConnectCopy new certificates to ''C: [http\Program Files (x86)\HDAConnect\config'' (overwrite if prompted for ''ca.crt'')* Update ''HomeHDA.ovpn'' to use the new certificate names://dl** Change line 9 from ''homehda.amahicrt'' to ''Amahi-Client-OpenVPN.org/HDAConnect2crt''** Change line 10 from ''homehda.exe HDAConnect2 installer]key'' to ''Amahi-Client-OpenVPN.key''
You should be able to connect to the HDA remotely now with HDAConnect. This is a temporary work around until we can update the HDAConnect3 installer.
