Description Willard Dawson 2009-08-02 18:58:31 UTC
Upgraded openvpn from 2.1_rc15 to 2.1_rc19. Now, default routing is broken. Reverted to rc15, and default routing works as expected.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge -u net-misc/openvpn
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Pertinent info from /var/log/messages, first for rc15:

< OpenVPN 2.1_rc15 i686-pc-linux-gnu [SSL] [LZO2] [EPOLL] built on Aug  2 2009
< TLS: Initial packet from 111.222.333.444:443, sid=8e0bf1ce 9ed5724f
< /etc/openvpn/up.sh tap0 1500 1576 172.16.11.244 255.255.255.0 init

< Registering new address record for fe80::451:3eff:fe60:7614 on tap0.*.

Next for rc19:

Expected Results:  
As with rc15.

Sorry for the omission of the `emerge --info` material.  Also, comment #2 was inadvertently truncated... refer to the complete output in comment #3.

could you please post your server/client-config? i'm using 2.1_rc19 on amd64 as client and i can't reproduce this error. which version is the server running?
Comment 6 Willard Dawson 2009-08-11 14:47:19 UTC
Our server version is pretty old, though I can't get at it right at the moment to say exactly which version its running.  I'll update this ticket later on with that info.

which adresses have:
your vpn-server from external, from internal and 
your client if he is not connected? did he need a hostroute to connect to client?

Done, but with no good effect.

I don't understand your question... the external and internal IP addresses on the server and client did not change from one version of openvpn to the next.

I cannot access that forum URL.  I received the error:

I have "redirect-gateway" but not "redirect-gateway def1".  I'll try it as soon as possible and post back with the result.

I was able to access the forum posting, when I retried it this evening.  Also, adding "redirect-gateway def1" to my client settings was sufficient to re-enable the routing.  I did not need to modify the server settings at all.

I also saw some odd timeouts occur, which were hopefully transient in nature.  At the time, adding "keepalive 10 600" was helpful.  No harm in keeping it that way, apparently.

My working client settings:

verb 4
client
dev tap
proto tcp
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
auth-user-pass
comp-lzo
pull
keepalive 10 600
redirect-gateway def1
remote vpn11.mysite.com 443

cert /etc/openvpn/wdawson.cer
key /etc/openvpn/wdawson.cer

Thank you for the references and the fix.

2009.10.01 -- Version 2.1_rc20

* Fixed a bug introduced in 2.1_rc17 (svn r4436) where using the
  redirect-gateway option by itself, without any extra parameters,
  would cause the option to be ignored.



so waiting it in portage, because for me bug still exists

just copy ebuild of rc19 to rc20 works for installing rc20. i think the new ebuild will be soon in portage.
