Start by installing app-crypt/easy-rsa. Follow [1] as literally as it |
| 7 |
makes sense, changing just the names. In particular, it really lowers |
| 8 |
the confusion if you follow the advice to keep files for each host in |
| 9 |
its own copy of the easy-rsa tree (or you can go all the way and |
| 10 |
actually install easy-rsa on each host, but I didn't). |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
When you have the keys on each host, install net-vpn/openvpn and start |
| 13 |
following [2], again as closely as possible. Skip the parts of [2] that |
| 14 |
explain how to generate the keys - you have already done that. |

I'll let someone else fill in the VM detail. |
