Hi all,
I want to report this bug:

1. if I run:
 openvpn --cd /etc/openvpn/ --script-security 2  --up "/etc/init.d/udhcpc
start" \
 --config $CONFIG_DIR/$NAME.conf
udhcp doesnt set dhcp as it should even if you add -up-delay --down-pre

here is the openvpn log:
Tue Mar 23 10:03:11 2010 TUN/TAP device tap0 opened
Tue Mar 23 10:03:11 2010 TUN/TAP TX queue length set to 100

Starting Openvpn dhcp client for tap0:  params: --now --no-zeroconf -i tap0 -s

2. If I run:
 openvpn --cd /etc/openvpn/ --config $CONFIG_DIR/$NAME.conf
then run /etc/init.d/udhcpc start
I get udhcp to setup dhcp.

so this bug report means that one can't use the --up argument to launch udhcpc
as described in the official docs of openvpn


I am using openvpn on maemo linux on the N900 in layer 2 connection , so
after establishing connection I need to issue a dhcp request.

Regards,
Niv
