For the "redirect-gatewy not working when using PPP" problem (Linux only, I 
think),
reported by some users. It has a long history...
I sent a patch for 2.0 (IIRC), then for 2.1-dev, then I did
some git stuff when OpenVPN started to use git.

The gist of it is:

# for redirect-gateway
IF gateway is device
THEN # this is new
  route add ... dev pppX
ELSE # same as existing code
 route add ... via 1.2.3.4

The patch involves changing the route command (2 types, Linux only),
detecting the gateway type and passing the data from one part of
code to other (detecting to setting).

It is trivial (if I could do it... ;) ).

David

[Openvpn-devel] FW: Patch submission - git crash course ?

[David Balažic]

Hi!

Is there some crash course for using git with openvpn sources?

I know svn and other tools, but not git.

So i need steps list like:

apt-get install git
svn co http://repo.openvpn.net/patchme # translated into git syntax
#do your changes
svn diff > my_patch  # again , git syntax


Thanks!
