Hi,
A couple of things I noticed
(i) On a slightly outdated Windows 7 box (last update in Sep 2017),
previously running 2.4.5, the install appeared to succeed but the tap
adapter was no longer usable -- openvpn errors out with CreateFile()
failure when opening the adapter. Reinstalling or recreating the adapters
did not work. Evenlog showed
Fault bucket , type 0
Event Name: PnPDeviceProblemCode
Response: Not available
Cab Id: 0
Problem signature:
P1: x64
P2: tap0901
P3: {4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
Anyway, on bringing the system up to date, reinstalling fixed it. Probably
a one-off thing or gremlins.... So much for that.
(ii) The driver version shows up as 9.0.0.21 -- this is apparently taken
from the inf file. Why is it not 9.21.3? The file version is 9.21.3 9/21 as
expected.
(iii) On Win7, the interface gets metric 20 --- implying a speed < 200 Mbps
as per the Windows automatic metric assignment table. Isn't this supposed
to get detected as a 1Gbps adapter now? The link speed patch is in master
and this one is one point ahead of it (9.21.3), so expected to see it here.
Not even (i) may be related to the signature, so the use of sha256 digest
looks like a non-issue.
