I have an OpenVPN server running on an Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS and it is due for release-upgrade. The installation of OpenVPN was originally done back in 2017 on the 16.04 LTS version.
Now I do not remember *how* it was installed, if I just used apt install openvpn like I do nowadays or if I first added the OpenVPN repositories to apt... Any customizations of apt sources will be overwritten bya a release-upgrade so I need to figure this out before the upgrade can be done. I check like this: $ openvpn --version OpenVPN 2.4.7 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [LZ4] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [MH/PKTINFO] [AEAD] built on Feb 19 2019 library versions: OpenSSL 1.0.2n 7 Dec 2017, LZO 2.10 So it seems rather old, but if I do the same check in another newer Ubuntu 20.04.3 I have then I get this: $ openvpn --version OpenVPN 2.4.7 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [LZ4] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [MH/PKTINFO] [AEAD] built on Jul 19 2021 library versions: OpenSSL 1.1.1f 31 Mar 2020, LZO 2.10 This is the same 2.4.7 version on both but the dates differ a lot... So I checked the custom repositories for apt: $ ls -l /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ total 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 97 Oct 16 2019 openvpn-aptrepo.list -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 63 Oct 16 2019 openvpn-aptrepo.list.distUpgrade The same on my other server shows an empty list. What to do to ensure that OpenVPN will work properly also after the Ubuntu do-release-upgrade to 20.04? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden _______________________________________________ Openvpn-users mailing list Openvpn-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users
