Package: openvpn Version: 2.4.0-5 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
After the upgrade to openvpn 2.4.0-5 (from *-4), an issue has been occuring where after having been connected to the VPN for an approximate amount of time of around 30-45 minutes, the network connection will drop. NetworkManager continues to state that the VPN is currently active, but no network is reachable. The only way to restart the VPN network is to bring the connection up again. As stated before, I am using openvpn through NetworkManger, and use nmcli with a configured VPN config file and a separate password file from a paid service I subscribe to. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (300, 'experimental'), (300, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages openvpn depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.60 ii init-system-helpers 1.48 ii iproute2 4.9.0-1 ii libc6 2.24-10 ii liblz4-1 0.0~r131-2+b1 ii liblzo2-2 2.08-1.2+b2 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.5 ii libpkcs11-helper1 1.21-1 ii libssl1.0.2 1.0.2k-1 ii libsystemd0 232-23 ii lsb-base 9.20161125 Versions of packages openvpn recommends: ii easy-rsa 2.2.2-2 Versions of packages openvpn suggests: ii openssl 1.1.0e-2 pn resolvconf <none> -- debconf information: openvpn/create_tun: false
