2009.10.01 -- Version 2.1_rc20 * Fixed a bug introduced in 2.1_rc17 (svn r4436) where using the redirect-gateway option by itself, without any extra parameters, would cause the option to be ignored.
* Fixed build problem when ./configure --disable-server is used. * Fixed ifconfig command for "topology subnet" on FreeBSD (Stefan Bethke). * Added --remote-random-hostname option. * Added "load-stats" management interface command to get global server load statistics. * Added new ./configure flags: --disable-def-auth Disable deferred authentication --disable-pf Disable internal packet filter * Added "setcon" directive for interoperability with SELinux (Sebastien Raveau). * Optimized PUSH_REQUEST handshake sequence to shave several seconds off of a typical client connection initiation. * The maximum number of "route" directives (specified in the config file or pulled from a server) can now be configured via the new "max-routes" directive. * Eliminated the limitation on the number of options that can be pushed to clients, including routes. Previously, all pushed options needed to fit within a 1024 byte options string. * Added --server-poll-timeout option : when polling possible remote servers to connect to in a round-robin fashion, spend no more than n seconds waiting for a response before trying the next server. * Added the ability for the server to provide a custom reason string when an AUTH_FAILED message is returned to the client. This string can be set by the server-side managment interface and read by the client-side management interface. * client-kill management interface command, when issued on server, will now send a RESTART message to client. This feature is intended to make UDP clients respond the same as TCP clients in the case where the server issues a RESTART message in order to force the client to reconnect and pull a new options/route list.
