I just updated this afternoon (r195941), and after rebooting, OpenVPN has problems ifconfig'ing a tun interface. With sources from about one week ago, this is working: Jul 29 03:07:15 diesel openvpn_zs64[14785]: /sbin/ifconfig tun1 44.128.127.2 44.128.127.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 mtu 1500 up Jul 29 03:07:15 diesel openvpn_zs64[14785]: /sbin/route add -net 44.128.127.0 44.128.127.2 255.255.255.0 Jul 29 03:07:15 diesel openvpn_zs64[14785]: /sbin/route add -net 44.128.64.0 44.128.127.1 255.255.192.0 Now, the same sequence fails: Jul 29 17:31:41 diesel openvpn_zs64[1855]: /sbin/ifconfig tun1 44.128.127.2 44.128.127.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 mtu 1500 up Jul 29 17:31:41 diesel openvpn_zs64[1855]: FreeBSD ifconfig failed: external program exited with error status: 1 Trying the same command manually gets me: /sbin/ifconfig tun1 44.128.127.2 44.128.127.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 mtu 1500 up ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists even though no address was assigned before. Another OpenVPN instance using tap continues to work. Stefan -- Stefan Bethke <stb@lassitu.de> Fon +49 151 14070811
