Hi,
I find myself looking for a mechanism by which I could send informational
messages ("your cert expires in two weeks, go refresh!" - "your openvpn
client needs an upgrade") from the openvpn server to incoming clients.
Of course this should work with all connecting clients, that is, "text
clients", windows GUI, Tunnelblick, iOS Connect, Android.
As far as I am aware, there is no such mechanism today.
Do we want to make one?
From the server / openvpn core side, it could be something totally trivial:
push "info-msg hey there!"
... and the client would then either print this on the console
(if !management) or dump it to management, where the GUI/Tunnelblick
could pick it up and create a popup window.
What do you think?
