[Openvpn-users] OpenVPN 1.5-beta7 Released


  • Subject: [Openvpn-users] OpenVPN 1.5-beta7 Released
  • From: "James Yonan" <jim@xxxxxxxxx>
  • Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2003 06:20:39 -0000

This release has a whirlwind of small fixes and additions.  Changes since beta6:

* Fixed bug that caused OpenVPN not to respond to exit/restart
  signals when --resolv-retry is used and a local or remote DNS
  name cannot be resolved (beta7).
* Exported a series of environmental variables with useful
  info for scripts.  See man page for more info.  Based
  on a suggestion by Anthony Ciaravalo (beta7).
* Moved TCP/UDP socket bind to a point in the initialization
  before the --up script gets called.  This is desirable
  because (a) a socket bind failure will happen before
  daemonization, allowing an error status code to be returned
  to the shell and (b) the possibility is eliminated of a
  socket bind failure causing the --up script to be run
  but not the --down script.  This change has a side effect
  that --resolv-retry will no longer work with --local (beta7).
* Fixed bug where if an OpenVPN TCP server went down and back
  up again, Solaris or FreeBSD clients would fail to reconnect
  to it (beta7).
* Fixed bug that prevented OpenVPN from being run by
  inetd/xinetd in TCP mode (beta7).
* Added --log and --log-append options for logging messages
  to a file (beta7).
* On Windows, check that the current user is a member of
  the Administrator group before attempting install
  or uninstall (beta7).

Enjoy,
James
