Any Cerowrt instructions to enable openvpn. Or is it the same as Openwrt?

I used to include openvpn as part of the default build of cero. It broke
entirely in the the 3.7.5 release so it was removed. It is fixed in the
3.8.6-2 release but it appears the luci gui is currently marked as broken
in openwrt head.

You can get the openvpn-openssl and openvpn-easyrsa packages via

opkg update
opkg install openvpn-openssl

I note I'm not huge on generating rsa keys on devices with minimal entropy.

I also note that either vtun or openvpn could use some debloating and love,
in that when I last pounded a lot of data through it, it had interesting
drop characteristics, and that it appears useful to attach fq_codel to a
vtun interface in some cases.

I've set it up using the same instructions as OpenWRT.  It seems to
work fine for IPv4; however, if you ever upgrade, bear in mind that
even if you save the configuration the RSA keys (at least if you use
easy-rsa) aren't backed up automatically along with the other config
settings, so you'll need to manually save & restore them.

I haven't quite figured out IPv6 yet, however.
