Client / config for Windows Home Server 2011 / Server 2008r2

What client and/or configuration would I use for Windows Home Server 2011 which I believe is based on a combination of Windows Server 2008r2 and Windows 7? Thanks.

Based on MS WinServer 2008r2, and I don't quite understand the question. You've got a Windows machine there which can run any Windows client. Even Eddie.

 

Another matter entirely if you want the server to connect to AirVPN and the clients to the server... I believe this is more involved.

I just want to connect the server as a client, not use it as a VPN server to connect other clients through.

 

So can I just use the standard AirVPN client?

 

If so which version as there isn't one that says it's for Windows Server - would it be the version for Windows Vista / 7?

Hello!

 

The version for Windows Vista and 7 should be perfect because Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 and Windows Home Server 2011 are just different marketing labels for different setups of Windows NT 6.1

 

Kind regards

The Vista / Windows 7 version installed OK and works fine.

 

However, there is an issue in that it shuts down when I log out, and that's quite a lot as it's a server.

 

Is there a way to keep the AirVPN client running when I have logged out of Windows?

If you log out, all programs the account started are closed. Better just switch users and keep the account logged in.
