Hi Samuel, Interesting finding you've found here. However, we're not developing the 2.1 branch any more. So if you could try the latest git master branch [1], that'd be great ... And if that still fails, try to apply your patch to see if that improves it. There has been some fixes to the whole routing part in 2.2 and 2.3, so we need to be sure we're not fixing something which is fixed in a different way. kind regards, David Sommerseth [1] <https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/DeveloperDocumentation#Coderepositories> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk9sifIACgkQDC186MBRfroZgQCfRTJQCONz6O5C+AVzSibOktTF YbAAnA1zpAIXx1SesGU0a4cxbd3tmQ31 =e1YT -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
