You may also wish to install tuntap:

  The TunTap project provides kernel extensions for Mac OS X that allow
  creation of virtual network interfaces.

  http://tuntaposx.sourceforge.net/

Because these are kernel extensions, there is no Homebrew formula for tuntap.


For OpenVPN to work as a server, you will need to do the following:

1) Create configuration file in #{etc}/openvpn, samples can be
   found in #{share}/doc/openvpn

2) Install the launchd item in /Library/LaunchDaemons, like so:

   sudo cp -vf #{prefix}/org.openvpn.plist /Library/LaunchDaemons/.
   sudo chown -v root:wheel /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.openvpn.plist

3) Start the daemon using:

   sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.openvpn.plist

Next boot of system will automatically start OpenVPN.
