Hi,
I wonder about the kill command in the management interface (kill vs.
client-kill):
Is the only difference in the parameters, CID vs common-name or ip:port or is
the way the server/clients react to this command different?
My problem is a 2.3.2 Client wich dies/hang in "signal" after 4 till 10
client-kill commands.
ps -elf | grep -i openvpn
4 T root 6222 2311 0 80 0 - 1486 *signal *09:51 pts/3 00:00:00
openvpn --config testing.ovpn
COMMAND -- kill
---------------
In server mode, kill a particlar client instance.
Command examples:
kill Test-Client -- kill the client instance having a
common name of "Test-Client".
kill 1.2.3.4:4000 -- kill the client instance having a
source address and port of 1.2.3.4:4000
Use the "status" command to see which clients are connected.
----
To immediately kill a client session, use "client-kill".
COMMAND -- client-kill (OpenVPN 2.1 or higher)
-----------------------------------------------
Immediately kill a client instance by CID.
client-kill {CID}
CID -- client ID. See documentation for ">CLIENT:" notification for more
info.
Server debian wheezy:
OpenVPN 2.2.1 x86_64-linux-gnu [SSL] [LZO2] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [eurephia] [MH]
[PF_INET6] [IPv6 payload 20110424-2 (2.2RC2)] built on Jun 18 2013
Client:
OpenVPN 2.3.2 i686-pc-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [EPOLL] [PKCS11]
[eurephia] [MH] [IPv6] built on Feb 4 2014
This affects only 2.3.2 Clients and is not reproduceable with e.g. 2.2.1
Clients.
Thanks for help.
