SCRIPT ALL THE THINGS!

The Windows binaries that the OpenSSL project will point you to are linked from this page. But I sure do like installing all the things via Chocolatey these days. Currently there’s no Chocolatey package for OpenSSL.

I do have it available on my main Windows computer’s command line.. Now how did it get there?

Get-Command openssl.exe | select Path

Path
----
C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\bin\openssl.exe

Oh there it is under OpenVPN, now I DO see a Chocolatey package for that!

OK, now to install OpenVPN via Chocolatey.

cinst openvpn

And now I’ll have to add the bin folder to the %PATH%.

C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\bin

And we’re done!

Todo:

  • Create Chocolatey package for OpenSSL.
