Linux ifconfig failed
Posted: Sat Oct 07, 2017 12:38 pm
Hello,
We are building a new OpenVPN Access Server on CentOS 7, to replace our old CentOS 5 box.
All has gone well thus far, and I have just attempted to start the service via the web GUI, but I get this error:
Is it simply a case that CentOS7 doesn't have ifconfig? So just need to install it, or is something else at fault here. 
This is a brand new clean server so I don't want to just go installing packages etc unless I have to.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Elliot
