Hi,
the init script for SuSE (source in suse/openvpn.init) contains a bug
regarding the location of the openvpn binary when used in an RPM.
If OpenVPN is built using rpm then the resulting binary is installed
as /usr/sbin/openvpn. The init script contains the following lines
> # Location of openvpn binary
> openvpn="/usr/local/sbin/openvpn"
/usr/local/sbin/openvpn may be valid when installing from tar.gz, but
not if using rpm.
Attached is a patch against openvpn.spec in 2.0rc3 which should fix
this.
Regards,
Stefan
