Title: e-smith and openvpn
Post by: pablosilva on December 22, 2004, 09:04:25 PM
Dear People:


     I was reading this article for to implement a vpn,

http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/index.html?frame=http%3A//sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/howtos/howto_30.htm

but when I try to install:

[root@gw root]# rpm -ihv
smeserver-openvpn-0.0.1-2.noarch.rpm
Preparing...              
########################################### [100%]
   1:smeserver-openvpn    
########################################### [100%]
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.16617: line 1: /sbin/e-smith/db: No
existe el fichero o el directorio
error: %post(smeserver-openvpn-0.0.1-2) scriptlet
failed, exit status 127

 I can see this error, where I can find e-smith rpm that
provides this command or software.

Thanks in Advance for any hint.

Hi,

Could you translate this, and what version of SME are you running?

Hi,

  No problem, the message said :

/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.16617: line 1: /sbin/e-smith/db: dosen't exist file or directory

 I was searching for e-smith in my whiteboxlinux distribution as rpm, but I could not find it.

 For these reason, I think that I must to download e-smith package... but which? where?, my principal repository of rpm packages is http://dag.wieers.com/packages/ , I always
install package by yum installer.


 The version of package is

smeserver-openvpn-0.0.1-2.noarch.rpm

Thanks for any Help...

A part of the install of smeserver-openvpn rpm the is the following.

Code: [Select]
/sbin/e-smith/db configuration set openvpn service status disabled

If you are running an earlier version of SME you may not have db (I am only guessing here). The smeserver-openvpn rpm is not required to run openvpn - it simply takes care of SMEs method of starting processes. You could do a link as follows

Code: [Select]
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/openvpn /etc/rc.d/rc7.d/S98openvpn

And forget the package.
