Change subject: Add an optional username-only flag for auth-user-pass ...................................................................... Patch Set 4: (1 comment) File doc/man-sections/client-options.rst: http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/1548/comment/5b6d4fe6_304f5220?usp=email : PS4, Line 96: > So I have a bit of usability problems here. […] Embedding username (with or without password) or reading from file are incompatible with username-only field. So, the usage you mentioned is not supported. I thought this was obvious as we currently do not support repeating such options like auth-user-pass --- i.e when repeated, onlythe last one overwrites previous ones. But we can strss this as done in teh commit message. If user wants to inline a username in the file, do not use username-only, just inline the username and a dummy password. Its already possible an dno chnages needed. Adding a dummy password inline is no trouble IMO. The rationale: The only case where "username-only" is required and useful is when no password should be prompted for, and embedding a dummy password is not practical: as in common config files for all users and SSO based on username/email that we do in some environments. -- To view, visit http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/1548?usp=email To unsubscribe, or for help writing mail filters, visit http://gerrit.openvpn.net/settings?usp=email Gerrit-MessageType: comment Gerrit-Project: openvpn Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Change-Id: I788f76e6a70a9c20bca3367140d2741bd0551582 Gerrit-Change-Number: 1548 Gerrit-PatchSet: 4 Gerrit-Owner: selvanair <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: plaisthos <[email protected]> Gerrit-CC: cron2 <[email protected]> Gerrit-CC: flichtenheld <[email protected]> Gerrit-CC: openvpn-devel <[email protected]> Gerrit-Attention: plaisthos <[email protected]> Gerrit-Attention: flichtenheld <[email protected]> Gerrit-Comment-Date: Mon, 02 Mar 2026 15:19:33 +0000 Gerrit-HasComments: Yes Gerrit-Has-Labels: No Comment-In-Reply-To: plaisthos <[email protected]>
