I am using RHEL 7.3
on AWS EC2
:
$ cat /etc/*-release
NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server"
VERSION="7.3 (Maipo)"
I would like to install OpenVPN
client and was following these directions. I started by sudo yum update
which completed fine. Then
$ sudo yum install epel-release
Loaded plugins: amazon-id, rhui-lb, search-disabled-repos
rhui-REGION-client-config-server-7 | 2.9 kB 00:00:00
rhui-REGION-rhel-server-releases | 3.5 kB 00:00:00
rhui-REGION-rhel-server-rh-common | 3.8 kB 00:00:00
No package epel-release available.
Error: Nothing to do
$ sudo yum install openvpn easy-rsa
Loaded plugins: amazon-id, rhui-lb, search-disabled-repos

How can I install OpenVPN client? Do I need add another yum
repo? I also tried the suggestions from this post, without success.
UPDATE: I was actually able to get past epel. i did yum-config-manager --enable epel
. Then I also successfully installed easy-rsa: yum install easy-rsa
. However, when I did yum install openvpn (yum install openvpn
), i got:
Error: Package: openvpn-2.3.14-1.el6.x86_64 (epel)
Requires: dev >= 3.3.2-5
