Description

--enable-async-push enable async-push support for plugins providing deferred authentication [default=no]

Not entirely sure if a client bug or not. However, when the client is very close (<1ms) to the server and using deferred authentication such as LDAP the client I'm using will get caught.

See:
https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?t=125259
Suspect this was cause of Bug #9043

Listed as feature to provide increased OpenVPN client support.

Fix #10273: Build OpenVPN with ASYNC_PUSH option

History

#1 Updated by Jim Pingle 4 months ago

Status changed from New to Needs Patch

There is no option in the FreeBSD port to enable that configure argument. The FreeBSD port maintainer will need to add an option for it first, and then it can be enabled on pfSense builds.

Since it was an easy change, I submitted a patch to FreeBSD ports

I see it went all the way back to OpenVPN as a compiling bug. Thank you for this putting in motion, appreciated and of value to the whole OpenVPN and FreeBSD community too.
