    Hey mates,

    I just want to install a vpn gateway on my vps. The operation system is CentOS. So can I just input yum install openvpn to install a vpn? Or need some more configrations? Thanks.

    Seems there's no openvpn package.

    No package openvpn available.
    Nothing to do

    Make sure your provider has the "tun" kernel module loaded or it won't work. The other option is to use a Xen based VPS, in which case its possible to compile your own modules.
