Hi,

I'd like to give this a second thought (kfreebsd compatibility worries
me too)

How about suggesting (i.e. in README.Debian) inserting that piece of
shell you sent in "up" scripts for those people using tun + subnet?

May be including it as /usr/share/openvpn/examples/avoid_redirects.sh
so people could just "source" it in their "up" script?

Thanks both of you for your interest!

Alberto
