Hello OpenVPN Users & Developers, I thought it would be a good time to wrap up the minor fixes that have gone into the codebase over the last couple months.
So here's a beta which I would encourage you to test as much as possible. While the changes are mostly minor, some of the fixes such as --tun-mtu-extra resulted in major changes to the MTU sizing algorithm. As well, I have only built for RH Linux in my testing, so please test on other OSes, distros, processor architectures, etc. Beta is available on CVS as well as here: http://openvpn.sourceforge.net/beta/openvpn-1.3.2.9.tar.gz Change Log: 2003.02.16 -- Version 1.3.2.9 * Added --replay-persist feature to allow replay protection across sessions. * Fixed bug where --ifconfig could not be used with --tun-mtu. * Added --tun-mtu-extra parameter to deal with the situation where a read on a TUN/TAP device returns more data than the device's MTU size. * Fixed bug where some IPv6 support code for Linux was not being properly ifdefed out for Linux 2.2, causing compile errors. * Added OPENVPN_EXIT_STATUS_x codes to openvpn.h to control which status value openvpn returns to its caller (such as a shell or inetd/xinetd) for various conditions. * Added OPENVPN_DEBUG_COMMAND_LINE flag to openvpn.h to allow debugging in situations where stdout, stderr, and syslog cannot be used for message output, such as when OpenVPN is instantiated by inetd/xinetd. * Removed owner-execute permission from file created by static key generator (Herbert Xu and Alberto Gonzalez Iniesta). * Added --passtos option to allow IPv4 TOS bits to be passed from TUN/TAP input packets to the outgoing UDP socket (Craig Knox). * Added code to prevent open socket file descriptors from being accessible to called scripts.
