Stopping and starting the daemon is not a big problem. OpenVPN offers a auto- connect feature (option: keepalive) that reestablishes the connection after the interruption. > I'm looking for something or someone that previously showed interest > in this topic. > If no, I will investigate the creation of a new RA or maybe a tiny > daemon for deploying in master/slave modes. > I think using netcat i'm able to get all openvpn data and also using > netcat to inject the data in another openvpn server. What be great to create a "connection table sync" during the failover. But please consider if this is really worth the effort when using the keepalive option in the client config. When programming it, please think about a connection table sync daemon, like in ipvs or netfilter. Greetings, -- Dr. Michael Schwartzkopff Guardinistr. 63 81375 München Tel: (0163) 172 50 98
