[Openvpn-devel] [PATCH] wrong error message for failing TUNSETGROUP

[Till Maas]

Hiyas,

currently openvpn prints that TUNSETOWNER failed if TUNSETGROUP failed. 
Attached patch fixes this.

Btw. it seems that the kernel shipped with CentOS does not support --group 
with --mktun, in case someone wants to document it somewhere.

Regards,
Till
