Public bug reported: Binary package hint: openvpn
After updating from Hardy to Intrepid, it seems openvpn is automatically launched on boot, and attemps to open all connections describes in /etc/openvpn/*.conf files. My exact version of OpenVPN here is 2.1~rc9-3ubuntu2. This causes a problem when using PKCS11 provider options in a configuration file: the boot is interrupted and in text mode a request to insert the token is displayed, like this: 8<-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NEED-OK|token-insertion-request|Please insert OpenSC Card (User PIN) token: 8<-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Despite trying all usual escape commands (escape, ctrl+C, ctrl+Z, etc), and actually inserting the token (nothing happened, it is on a USB connection), this completely blocked the boot. I had to restart and then boot in recovery mode and rename my file to avoid the automatic connection. I feel that launching connections automatically is not the problem - that's a nice feature :) However, I would expect at least to be able to cancel the connection opening, or delay this error message until a user has logged in. If any further info can help, my config is waiting for your requests. ** Affects: openvpn (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- openvpn configuration with token (pkcs11 provider) blocks the boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278784 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
