* The maximum number of "route" directives (specified in the configjames2009-09-171-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | file or pulled from a server) can now be configured via the new "max-routes" directive. Previously, the limit was set to 100 and fixed by a compile-time constant. Now the limit is dynamic and can be modified by the "max-routes" directive. If max-routes is not specified, the default limit is 100. Note that this change does not address the maximum size of the pushed options string sent from server to client, which is still controlled by the TLS_CHANNEL_BUF_SIZE compile-time constant. git-svn-id: http://svn.openvpn.net/projects/openvpn/branches/BETA21/openvpn@4967 e7ae566f-a301-0410-adde-c780ea21d3b5

| | | | | | | | | | | from server (rather than only IP address) for --ifconfig, --route, and --route-gateway. OpenVPN versions 2.1_rc7 and earlier allowed DNS names for these options to be pulled and translated to IP addresses by default. Now --allow-pull-fqdn will be explicitly required on the client to enable DNS-name-to-IP-address translation of pulled options. git-svn-id: http://svn.openvpn.net/projects/openvpn/branches/BETA21/openvpn@3307 e7ae566f-a301-0410-adde-c780ea21d3b5

Modified client.conf and server.conf to reflect new option modes.

* Completely revamped the system for calling external programs and scripts:james2008-07-261-0/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * All external programs and scripts are now called by execve() on unix and CreateProcess on Windows. * The system() function is no longer used. * Argument lists for external programs and scripts are now built by the new argv_printf function which natively outputs to string arrays (i.e. char *argv[] lists), never truncates its output, and eliminates the security issues inherent in formatting and parsing command lines, and dealing with argument quoting. * The --script-security directive has been added to offer policy controls on OpenVPN's execution of external programs and scripts. Also added a new plugin example (openvpn/plugin/examples/log.c) that logs information to stdout for every plugin method called by OpenVPN. git-svn-id: http://svn.openvpn.net/projects/openvpn/branches/BETA21/openvpn@3122 e7ae566f-a301-0410-adde-c780ea21d3b5

The changes allows the following features: 1. Thread safe, is activated if USE_PTHREAD. 2. Slot event - Will allow us in the future to disconnect VPN when smartcard is removed. In order to support this OpenVPN must support threading... At least SIGUSR1 from a different thread. Threading should be supported in both Windows and Linux. -- currently disabled. When I talk about threading support it is just support in configuration script and that the method that SIGUSR1 self can be called from a different thread. I already handle the monitor threads. 3. Certificate enumeration - Will allow us to finally have one configuration file for all users! When you add the plugin GUI stuff you talked about, we will be able to display a list of available certificates for the user to select. -- currently disabled. 4. Data object manipulation - Will allow us to store tls-auth on the smartcard as well. -- currently disabled. 5. Many other minor improvements.
