OpenVPN is a robust, scalable and highly configurable VPN (Virtual Private
Network) daemon which can be used to securely link two or more private networks
using an encrypted tunnel over the internet. It can operate over UDP or TCP,
can use SSL or a pre-shared secret to authenticate peers, and in SSL mode, one
server can handle many clients.

2 - match rc.d filename as printed post install in pkg-message to actual file
name on newer systems (which use openvpn rather than openvpn.sh)
Reported by: Jean-Baptiste Quenot (Bcc'd)
The maintainer wishes to thank Jean-Baptiste for his report and patience.
3 - add a pkg-req script to prevent installation of 6.1 packages on older
machines, which is a frequent source of "rc.d script doesn't work"
complaints.
Added file(s):
- files/pkg-req.in

- Drop old init script and add a modern rcNG script in its place,
requested by Matthias Grimm and Dirk Gouders (although the script below is
one I, Matthias Andree, wrote). It can automatically load tun/tap drivers.
- move pkg-message to files/pkg-message.in, revise it, list it in SUB_FILES
to expand ${PREFIX}.
- print pkg-message after installation from port
- switch to official "make check" as smoke-test, rather than wiring our own.
- prefer LZO2 in most situations, as OpenVPN will pick up LZO2 rather than
LZO1 if both are installed.
