>Description:
The port security/openvpn comes with a strartup script that just
kldloads if_tap but does not start openvpn.
I'd like to suggest to rename the startup script to a name that
says what it does (e.g. load_if_tap.sh) and add another startup
script that really starts openvpn; I'll add the script that I
use to start openvpn as an example:
#!/bin/sh
#
# openvpn.sh - start openvpn daemon
#
: ${openvpn_enable="NO"}
: ${openvpn_configfile="/usr/local/etc/openvpn/openvpn.conf"}
: ${openvpn_dir="/usr/local/etc/openvpn"}
#
# Add the following line to /etc/rc.conf to enable openvpn:
#
# openvpn_enable="YES"
#
# You also need to set openvpn_configfile and openvpn_dir if on your
# system, the configuration file and directory where keys and
# certificates reside differ from the above settings.
#
. /usr/local/etc/rc.subr
name=openvpn
rcvar=`set_rcvar`
command=/usr/local/sbin/openvpn
load_rc_config openvpn
openvpn_flags="--cd ${openvpn_dir} --daemon --config ${openvpn_configfile}"
required_files="${openvpn_configfile}"
run_rc_command "$1"
