Description Matej Stepanek 2006-01-26 07:26:52 UTC

openvps has in default config file "log         openvpn.log" which causes the
log to be open in /etc/openvpn.

That's wrong. It should be "log         /var/log/openvpn.log" because /etc is for
configuration files. Logs belong into /var/log.

I suggest "/var/log" to be prepended into the affected line of the default
configuration file during the patching process.

We don't install any sample configuration files at all.
