Re: [Openvpn-devel] GUI repo

I saw few cases when openvpn.exe remains running even after openvpn-gui told it to stop (and it was awful). is iservice magic of start/stop openvpn.exe the same as for openvpn-gui ? if yes, I would say that it is ok to switch to iservice by default. 2016-02-08 12:42 GMT+05:00 Gert Doering : > H

Re: [Openvpn-devel] GUI repo

I saw that PR. I have one question regarding that. when we deployed openvpn, we used to supply our users a config file without "nobind" keyword. it worked for most of our users, however, those who needed 2 or more vpn connections complained that "port already bind". so, we added "nobind" to clien

Re: [Openvpn-devel] GUI repo

as far as I understand it is up to user whether to install openvpn as a service or not. if openvpn is not installed as a service, highest priv is required, right? 2016-02-08 1:29 GMT+05:00 Selva Nair : > Hi, > > On Sun, Feb 7, 2016 at 3:12 PM, Илья Шипицин wrote: > >> there's still "Start OpenVP

there's still "Start OpenVPN directly" https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-gui/blob/master/openvpn.c#L724 in such case admin rights are still required for routes manipulation. maybe we should release two installers (or make a checkbox in installer?) 1) regular mode (with highest priv manifest)

if you mean interactive service, keep in mind that people sometimes start openvpn as a child of openvpn-gui, not as a service воскресенье, 7 февраля 2016 г. пользователь Selva Nair написал: > Hi, > > We can now remove the HighestAvailable privilege request in GUI, but have > to keep it in the 2.3

[Openvpn-devel] GUI repo

Hi, We can now remove the HighestAvailable privilege request in GUI, but have to keep it in the 2.3.x windows installer which doesn't have iservice. So it may be useful to make a release branch in the GUI repo. Thanks, Selva
