Description Ed Catmur 2006-07-06 10:28:58 UTC

/etc/init.d/openvpn has:

VPNDIR="/etc/openvpn"
VPN="${SVCNAME##*.}"
if [[ -n ${VPN} && ${SVCNAME} != "openvpn" ]]; then
        VPNPID="/var/run/openvpn.${VPN}.pid"
else
        VPNPID="/var/run/openvpn.pid"
fi
VPNCONF="${VPNDIR}/${VPN}.conf"

This prevents using period '.' in openvpn config names; VPN="${SVCNAME##*.}" strips everything up to the last period. This could be changed to VPN="${SVCNAME#*.}" to just strip the initial "openvpn.".

Fixed - sync up to get the new script. No rev bump.

Thanks
