2.4. Gentoo

You will need to add the eurephia value to the USE flag. This will enable the eurephia patch when building OpenVPN.

host ~ # USE="eurephia" emerge net-misc/openvpn

All configuration files for OpenVPN can be found under /etc/openvpn.

Important

If you already have installed OpenVPN on Gentoo without adding eurephia to the USE flag, you will need to reinstall OpenVPN. Otherwise the eurephia will not work properly.

The eurephia plug-in and utilities is on the way into portage, but is not yet finalised and properly reviewed. See Gentoo Bugzilla #328499 for some more information.

If you decide to install eurephia from source, as described in Section 3.3, “Compiling eurephia”, you need to install CMake, SQLite3, libxml2 and libxslt first.

host ~ # emerge dev-util/cmake dev-db/sqlite dev-libs/libxml2 dev-libs/libxslt
