-OpenVPN is a full-featured SSL VPN solution which can accomodate a wide
-range of configurations, including remote access, site-to-site VPNs,
-WiFi security, and enterprise-scale remote access solutions with load
-balancing, failover, and fine-grained access-controls.
-
-OpenVPN implements OSI layer 2 or 3 secure network extension using the
-industry standard SSL/TLS protocol, supports flexible client
-authentication methods based on certificates, smart cards, and/or
-2-factor authentication, and allows user or group-specific access
-control policies using firewall rules applied to the VPN virtual
-interface.
-
-Naturally OpenVPN depends upon having openssl (not just openssl-solibs)
-installed on your computer. However, this script does not include
-support for LZO compression.
-
-Please note that there is no default config file for OpenVPN. This is
-by design. OpenVPN can technically use any config file in any location.
-However, this script does create an /etc/openvpn/ directory with certs/
-and keys/ subdirectories. Feel free to place config files, keys, and
-certificates in these directories. certs/ and keys/ are owned by user
-root and group nobody and are not world readable nor writable.
-Additionally, they are not writable by group nobody. It is recommended
-that you run openvpn nobody:nobody, but you may use another
-non-privilaged user and group at your option. Just change the
-permissions on these permissions to reflect that if you do.
