[Openvpn-users] setenv variables, value mangling (openvpn 1.6_rc3)

[Harald Roelle <roeldom1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi *,

In openvpn 1.6_rc3, setting a variable using setenv, it looks like that the value given to the script's environment gets mangled.
Example:

In config file:
setenv testVar "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890 <>|,.-#+^;:_*~\!§$%&/()=?"

In script: 
echo "$testVar" > /tmp/lall

The file reads:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890......-....._......./..=.

Is this a bug or a feature?
Can this behaviour be influenced by an option?
Did I miss something?

Thanks in advance for any answer,

Harald Roelle
