support for http-proxy-option EXT1
Got a problem with Viscosity or need help? Ask here!
Is this possible to use this kind of config with viscosity.
http-proxy-option EXT1 'X-Online-Host: 10.11.233.29'
http-proxy-option EXT2 'Host: 10.11.233.29'
I know that openvpn natively does not support it, I use it this config using NMDVPN in my parallel and sharing my VPN through PARALLEL to my mac
It will be great if this config works natively in my mac only, so I can ditch requirement of PARALLEL DESKTOP.

Hi frriction,
Viscosity's proxy support is implemented by OpenVPN itself (for the most part), so if OpenVPN doesn't support it I'm afraid Viscosity will not either. However you can replace Viscosity's version of OpenVPN with your own patched version that adds support if you wish. As of version 1.4.2 the OpenVPN binary is located at /Library/ViscosityHelperTools/openvpn. You can replace the default version there with your custom version (just make sure it has the same permissions as on the original version, otherwise Viscosity may attempt to replace it).
Cheers,
James

Hi frriction,
You'd need the OpenVPN source code (from the OpenVPN website), and the necessary patches/modifications that NMDVPN have made (OpenVPN is licensed under the GPL, so you are allowed to ask them for any changes they have made). You'd then need to compile OpenVPN yourself and replace the version Viscosity uses with your version.
Modifying source code and compiling OpenVPN aren't easy tasks, so it might end up being too difficult when compared to simply using Parallels.

James,
Thank you for your reply I tried looking for NMDVPN source or their patch but no luck. So no other way but have to stick to PARALLEL method. I want to run natively because I feel that PARALLEL method bottlenecks the bandwidth. Anyway really happy with your answer and support.

Has custom headers been implemented yet? Its 3 years now. Who has a patched openvpn binary?
Let me just drop this here http://sourceforge.net/p/openvpn/mailma ... /31561156/
