Hello all, I would like to announce a new version of "ovpn-dco-win"-enabled client. Here are some changes from the previous version:
1) MSI based installer. This makes upgrades from existing installations more smooth, since starting from version 2.5 openvpn has switched to MSI. - ovpn-dco-win driver is installed only on Windows 10 2004 and newer, on other versions the driver feature won't be even visible in installer dialog - (un)installer should correctly handle cases when ovpn-dco-win adapter is in use. It shuts down openvpn service and, if that doesn't help, prompts to reboot at the end of (un)installation - driver is deleted from Windows driver store on uninstallation 2) Fixes to the driver itself: - control packets from the previous VPN session could be delivered to a client which has started a new VPN session. This happened in rare cases when control packets were read by the driver from the network and the app hasn't issued read requests - crypto: when adding a new key, data channel packet-id hasn't been re-initialized. In some cases this caused VPN session to stop functioning after key renegotiation 3) The client code is based on the latest version of Arne Schwabe's dco branch (https://github.com/schwabe/openvpn/tree/dco, commit ceefcaf), which, comparison the previous version, includes deferred authentication improvements, openvpn state machine refactoring and many other nice things. The signed installation package could be downloaded from https://build.openvpn.net/downloads/snapshots/OpenVPN-2.6-dco-win-preview-amd64.msi The driver repo is hosted here: https://github.com/openvpn/ovpn-dco-win As before, to enable ovpn-dco-win driver, add following options to the ovpn profile: windows-driver ovpn-dco-win tun-mtu 1428 Please give it a try (since this is a feature preview, avoid installation on production systems) and report your feedback (especially performance improvements if you notice any) to help us get ovpn-dco-win into the next major release. -- -Lev _______________________________________________ Openvpn-devel mailing list Openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-devel
