Build OpenVPN on MacOSX

README.md

Basic steps to compile OpenVPN with LibreSSL or OpenSSL

Clone the OpenVPN repository (master or checkout a TAG to build stable release)

$ git clone https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn.git

Install dependencies with HOMEBREW

$ brew install automake autoconf libtool pkg-config libressl openssl lzo lz4

USE THE FOLLOWING FILE TO COMPILE OPENVPN

Just in case: to make the sh file executable you need to use: $ chmod +x {filename}

build-openvpn.sh

#!/bin/sh

cd ~/openvpn
make clean
autoreconf -i -v -f
# Libressl
./configure --disable-debug --disable-dependency-tracking --disable-silent-rules --with-crypto-library=openssl OPENSSL_LIBS="-L/usr/local/opt/libressl/lib -lssl -lcrypto" OPENSSL_CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/libressl/include"

# Openssl
# ./configure --disable-debug --disable-dependency-tracking --disable-silent-rules --with-crypto-library=openssl OPENSSL_LIBS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto" OPENSSL_CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include"

make -j4
make install
