2008-10-07 08:57:04 Thierry Carrez openvpn: statusexplanation According to http://svn.openvpn.net/projects/openvpn/branches/BETA21/openvpn/management/management-notes.txt the NEED-OK line is a notification that is supposed to be acked using the management interface (issue a "needok token-insertion-request ok" command to the management port)... That makes it quite unsuitable at boot-up time. See also discussions from other users not happy with this on : http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=48BF842A.1040901%40aixigo.de Jonathan : does booting with the token already inserted (before the notification pops up) work ? Does a workaround where we would filter out configurations that use pkcs#11 so that they are not autostarted make sense ? Would looking for "pkcs11-id" in the configuration be enough to detect them ?

Thanks for your testing :) So this has been fixed by reverting to hardy behavior. Fix shipped in 2.1~rc11-1ubuntu2
