Are there any chances to get full non-admin support for windows in version 2.3 
final?

I mean strict seperation between OpenVPN service running with local system
privileges (can modify routes, etc.) and usermode part (command line, maybe 
GUI) that
interacts with user (start/stop tunnel, ask for passphrase, pin for smartcard, 
etc.).

In companies that have security in mind it's impossible to allow
roadwarriors to connect via openvpn because they would need admin
privileges.
Give them only the privilege to start/stop the openvpn service didn't help 
because they can't supply credentials.

I'm complaining about this show stoppper for ~4 years :-(

I personally like openvpn very much and would like to deploy it for
our users but I've to buy Cisco because the windows client is better.

greetings
Carsten
