Release Notes:
This is a housekeeping release containing minor fixes and finishing touches
on larger features introduced in previous versions. The version number has
incremented to 1.3.x due to a change in default MTU values.
The default values for --udp-mtu and --tun-mtu have been lowered to 1300 as
a conservative measure to reduce the possibility of packet fragmentation and
loss for users who do not explicitly set a value.
If you are using OpenVPN 1.3.0 to connect to previous versions of OpenVPN,
you should set the MTU explicitly on both peers, keeping in mind that in
pre-1.3.0 versions of OpenVPN, --udp-mtu defaulted to 1500 and --tun-mtu
defaulted to 1450.
Change Log from 1.2.1 -> 1.3.0:
* Added --dev-node option to allow explicit selection of
tun/tap device node.
* Removed mlockall call from child thread, as it doesn't
appear to be necessary (child thread inherits mlockall
state from parent).
* Added --ping-timer-rem which causes timer for --ping-exit
and --ping-restart not to run unless we have a remote IP
address.
* Added condrestart to openvpn.init and openvpn.spec
(Bishop Clark).
* Added --ifconfig case for FreeBSD (Matthias Andree).
* Call openlog with facility=LOG_DAEMON (Matthias Andree).
* Changed LOG_INFO messages to LOG_NOTICE.
* Added warning when key files are group/others accessible.
* Added --single-session flag for TLS mode.
* Fixed bug where --writepid would segfault if used with
an invalid filename.
* Fixed bug where --ipchange status message was formatted
incorrectly.
* Print more concise error message when system() call
fails.
* Added --disable-occ option.
* Added --local, --remote, and --ifconfig options sanity
check.
* Changed default UDP MTU to 1300 and TUN/TAP MTU to
1300.
* Successfully tested with OpenSSL 0.9.7 Beta 2.
* Broke out debug level definitions to errlevel.h
* Minor documentation and web site changes.
* All changes maintain protocol compatibility
with OpenVPN versions since 1.1.0, however default
MTU changes will require setting the MTU explicitly
by command line option, if you want 1.3.0 to
communicate with previous versions.
