Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
I appreciate the problem you are facing, and that the latest version fixed the issue. Unfortunately, there isn't enough information here to be able to figure out if there is a valid bug in 2.2.1-8ubuntu1, if this is a local network configuration issue that 2.3.0 can work around, or something else. We expect to update the development version of Ubuntu to 2.3.0 once Debian has updated. Since we cannot update the version of openvpn in 12.04 to 2.3.0 due to SRU policy (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates), the only option to fix this problem in 12.04 is to identify the actual cause of the bug, if there is one. But this needs accurate steps to reproduce, or a pointer to information available on the issue elsewhere. So I am marking this bug as Incomplete. If you can provide accurate steps for somebody to independently reproduce this issue, or can point to a specific bug fix (eg. in the upstream repository), please comment and change the status back to New. ** Changed in: openvpn (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openvpn in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1118705 Title: openvpn connection stalls To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openvpn/+bug/1118705/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
