Setting up bridge with comar methods

To share internet connection, i will use bridging. In order to do that, i implement some methods that add/delete bridge interface and add/remove interfaces to the bridge interface. These methods are:
*addBridge(br_name)
*delBridge(br_name)
*addInterface(br_name,if_name)
*delInterface(br_name,if_name)

and also i add a new interface to comar's model.xml file, named "Net.Share" and the above methods are added to these comar interface.

OpenVPN Client GUI is coming...

Nowadays i am trying to add openvpn client connection feature to Tasma 's network-manager and soon it will finish. OpenVPN is an application that provides secure connection. To setup an openvpn connection, you have to enter the parameters:
-device type: tun/tap
-domain name or ip of the openvpn server
-port number - occasionally 1194
-protocol number UDP/TCP
-CA certificate
-client certificates: .crt and .key files
-Chipher type: no chipher, BF-CBC, AS-128-CBC, DES-EDE3-CBC

These parameters can be written to a configuration file (assume "client.conf") and the connection can be done easily with the command "#openvpn --config client.conf" if all the parameters are rigth and complete.

You can see codes by clikcing here
