I have seen the popup windows for "connect" and "disconnect."

But when I revoke a certificate for a user on the server, the server log display "user cert has been revoked" but how can we display a similar message as "PLease contact your Administrator" on the OPENVPN GUI. I have noticed it keeps going and trying in an infinite loop. Are we suppose to see a unsuccessful pop window? Just wondering a road warrior could be staring at the screen for some time...... without seeing any error messages.

I took a closer look at this. And it's just like you say. The OpenVPN server logs that the certificate is revoked, but the client don't seem to be notified of this. Atleast nothing is logged about this.


James, would it be possible for the server to notify the client that the certificate has been revoked, so a log message can be printed on the client?

I've added checks for certificates that has expired or is not yet valid, so these now shows an error dialog (in next release of OpenVPN GUI).
