Like I said, my testing on a fresh gutsy install has failed to reproduce that : $ sudo apt-get install openvpn [...] $ grep openvpn /etc/passwd | wc -l 0 $ grep openvpn /etc/group | wc -l 0 No "openvpn" user or group is created upon openvpn install in Gutsy. So openvpn isn't configured to run as "openvpn" user out-of-the-box in Gutsy... Furthermore I see no reference to a specific user creation in the Gutsy package. Could you please explain in more detail and provide the information I asked in comment #3 : name of the user or group that were created, the version you originally installed, the version you upgraded to, the type of upgrade you've performed... -- OpenVPN deletes its own user group in Hardy. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241461 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
