OpenVPNAS DCO

Post by edmoncu » Tue Feb 06, 2024 8:34 pm

Hi,

My host OS is running on CentOS 7.9.2009 (Core). Curious if this OS supports DCO?
I tried doing a yum install kmod-ovpn-dc and was met with No package kmod-ovpn-dco available.

May I ask what is the minimum supported Cent OS 7 is supported for ovpn-dco?
If yes, kindly seeking help on what repo shall I add to install this?

Update: upon reading this, CentOS 7 (RHEL7) does not support DCO: https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/w ... nVPN3Linux

Thank you.

Hi Ed,

Thanks for your post, and you're right, there are no plans to package DCO for RHEL7. You could try building it from source, but it might not work in older kernel versions, and it would be a pain to maintain going forth. Probably the best advice is to move to RHEL9 or equivalent.
