Package: openvpn
Version: 2.1.3-2ubuntu3~ppa1~lucid1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

The configuration file /etc/default/openvpn refers to "names" of vpn's.
However it is not exactly clear how one can define a vpn of a certain
name. (I had too examine /etc/init.d/openvpn to find out where the start
scripts find the "name" of a vpn).

Please apply the attached patch which adds a short example to
/etc/default/openvpn showing where the "name" of a vpn comes from.

Thanks,
