Re: free vpn

openVPN should work.  I've not tried any GUI front ends.  Care to expand upon 'errors"

Can you expand upon "free".  Free is in Libre, or Free as in Freedom.  In other words, do you have issues with the openVPN license?

Re: free vpn

What is wrong with the AUR package?

ewaller@odin-wireless:~ 1001 %packer -Ss gopenvpn
aur/gopenvpn-svn 7-1 (45)
    OpenVPN GTK front-end (mainly for Gnome)
ewaller@odin-wireless:~ 1002 %

And, sorry, I don't understand

free as in free of use "with normally the advertising part"

Ehmm.. no. pacman -Syu openvpn is what you're looking for.
