Package: openvpn-auth-ldap
Version: 2.0.3-2
Severity: normal

If you do not set Timeout in openvpn-auth-ldap's configuration file,
OpenVPN will crash. From the log file:

  [..]
  Wed Jul  4 07:24:55 2012 TCPv4_SERVER link local: [undef]
  Wed Jul  4 07:24:55 2012 TCPv4_SERVER link remote: 
[AF_INET]212.xxx.yyy.zzz:40823
  Wed Jul  4 07:24:55 2012 212.xxx.yyy.zzz:40823 TLS: Initial packet from 
[AF_INET]212.xxx.yyy.zzz:40823, sid=c524afbb 2f3a09df
  openvpn: sasl.c:257: ldap_parse_sasl_bind_result: Assertion `res != ((void 
*)0)' failed.

The fix for OpenVPN to prevent it from crashing is here:
http://code.google.com/p/openvpn-auth-ldap/source/detail?r=1324
More information about the problem:
http://code.google.com/p/openvpn-auth-ldap/issues/detail?id=11
I expect the fix will be included in a future version of OpenVPN in Debian.

But it does not fix the problem per se. Perhaps openvpn-auth-ldap should check 
and make sure the
timeout value is set too. Or set a reasonable default.

Regards,

Oskar
