Description Felix Finch 2008-08-08 16:26:50 UTC 
Something changed in net-misc/openvpn-2.1_rc9 and it now refuses to run up/down scripts.  Here is the error message in syslog:

openvpn[16215]: openvpn_execve: external program may not be called due to setting of --script-security level

I added "--script-security 2" to init.d/openvpn and it works, but I do not know if this is a good long term solution.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Felix Finch 2008-08-08 16:28:35 UTC 
I should have added this is on a ~amd64 system, but I doubt that makes any difference.  Openvpn version is net-misc/openvpn-2.1_rc9.
