- Description:
- OpenVPN is a robust, scalable and highly configurable VPN (Virtual Private
Network) daemon which can be used to securely link two or more private networks
using an encrypted tunnel over the internet. It can operate over UDP or TCP,
can use SSL or a pre-shared secret to authenticate peers, and in SSL mode, one
server can handle many clients.

Note that OpenVPN configures a separate user and group "openvpn",
which should be used instead of the NFS user "nobody"
when an unprivileged user account is desired.

configuration files, the example configuration shows this only as comments.
- If upgrading
- Note that OpenVPN now configures a separate user and group "openvpn",

security/openvpn*: update to 2.6.0, keep openvpn25
- copy openvpn to openvpn25, mark as deprecated and to expire March 31
- update openvpn to openvpn 2.6.0, highlights from Frank Lichtenheld's
release announcement e-mail, slightly edited:
* Data Channel Offload (DCO) kernel acceleration support for Windows,
Linux, and FreeBSD [14].
* OpenSSL 3 support
* Improved handling of tunnel MTU, including support for pushable MTU.
* Outdated cryptographic algorithms disabled by default, but there are
options to override if necessary.
* Reworked TLS handshake, making OpenVPN immune to replay-packet state
exhaustion attacks.
* Added --peer-fingerprint mode for a more simplistic certificate setup
and verification.
* Improved protocol negotiation, leading to faster connection setup.
