Thu Jun 30 20:26:57 UTC 2016 Slackware 14.2 x86_64 stable is released! The long development cycle (the Linux community has lately been living in "interesting times", as they say) is finally behind us, and we're proud to announce the release of Slackware 14.2. The new release brings many updates and modern tools, has switched from udev to eudev (no systemd), and adds well over a hundred new packages to the system. Thanks to the team, the upstream developers, the dedicated Slackware community, and everyone else who pitched in to help make this release a reality. The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided 32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription. Have fun! :-) |

OpenVPN is a full-featured SSL VPN which can accomodate a wide range of configurations, including remote access, site-to-site VPNs, WiFi security, and enterprise-scale remote access with load balancing, failover, and fine-grained access-controls. OpenVPN implements OSI layer 2 or 3 secure network extension using the industry standard SSL/TLS protocol, supports flexible client authentication methods based on certificates, smart cards, and/or 2-factor authentication, and allows user or group-specific access control policies using firewall rules applied to the VPN virtual interface. This build of OpenVPN depends upon having openssl (not just openssl-solibs) and lzo installed on your computer. Please note that there is no default config file for OpenVPN. This is by design. OpenVPN can technically use any config file in any location. However, this script does create an /etc/openvpn/ directory with certs/ and keys/ subdirectories. Feel free to place config files, keys, and certificates in these directories. certs/ and keys/ are owned by user root and group nobody and are not world readable nor writable. Additionally, they are not writable by group nobody. It is recommended that you run openvpn nobody:nobody, but you may use another non-privilaged user and group at your option. Just change the permissions on these permissions to reflect that if you do.
