OpenVPN Support Forum

I tried to configure openvpn-2.3.5. I took following steps:

1. unpack the tarball in /home/admin/Source

2.enter the unpacked folder openvpn-2.3.5

3. run ./configure command

4. I configured files server.key and client.key and other stuff

5. I tried to run openvpn.init.d.rhel start and it failed. Command openvpn start not found

My question is: how do I start the process/service of openvpn-2.3.5

in which OS you are trying to install? if linux which distro?
there are ready rpm/deb packages usually provided by distro manufacturer.

if you want to compile it your self , usually after configure you run make ; make install

Thank you for your attention. I succeeded to compile the package and receive the rpm. So the compilation issue is solved
