Because I'm Tired to manually connect/reconnect over and over again to my servers,
recheck for imap connections,
switchover to webmail from certain clients,
find a way to escape from the local network,
afraid of sniffing administrators,
reconnect for slow or bad connections ...
I have never had any problems when using openvpn
It auto-reconnects when problems,
In the customer firewall there is mostly 1 hit in the log for a day
(and all the rest of my traffic is hidden)
You don't need to take care of secure your traffic because its encrypted. (if it is routed true your vpn)
But the greatest is using openvpn over https!
(At almost every network https is just open!)
Even on expensive firewalls you cant see a different between https traffic and openvpn
Just because it uses ssl on the same way https is using it
For those who want to try this I will wrote a small howto
openvpn copy/past howto
