Scott, We're planning on releasing 2.0.1 next week, most likely. When are you planning on freezing? I'm on vacation right now, so I didn't have a chance to go back and read the original thread where you reported the problem, but it would be great if you could take a look at the the latest 2.0.1 beta release and let me know if it fixes the problem: http://openvpn.net/beta/openvpn-2.0.1_rc7.tar.gz James
