Hello, I have an application that binds to OpenVPN's interface (tap0). This app is fairly intensive as I can send out ~14Mbps of streaming video using tcp. SOMETHING is causing OpenVPN to crash, and when this happens, my app(s) which is bound to that interface crashes.
I am running OpenVPN Server 2.0.7 on the Linux 2.6.13 kernel and OpenVPN 2.0.7 Client on WinXP. Ideally, I would like to trace what is causing the crash, however, in the meantime I would like to seperate the tap0 device and OpenVPN so, worst case, I simply lose the availability of VPN connections until my service monitor can restart OpenVPN. I can simulate this by pkill -9 openvpn, the tap0 interface will dissappear from ifconfig. Any suggestions? OpenVPN is a great piece of software. Thank you and the rest of the contributors for this. -Bryan
