[Openvpn-users] ovpn local network burst

i've been debugging a network problem for some time now

and i think i've narrowed it down to a machine running an ovpn 1.6.0
bridge, it's winxp pro.

i use this machine to host a vpn for a small lan. there are 3-5 remote users.

what i've noticed, and i don't think it corresponds to legitimate vpn
traffic, is the following:

our network will lock up (it seems the switch floods the router's lan
interface, and locks everything for a minute or two), i can isolate
the port on my switch responsible for this burst/flood (and i am
pretty sure it's the one running ovpn).

are there any known issues? i saw  a possible vulnerability, and also
a linux user with a similar issue:

am i running into any of the above? any fixes? is this fixed in a
newer release? might my nic be bad?

thanks!!
