Description

Hello

Currently running the latest pfsense 2.1.3-RELEASE (amd64).

Currently I have some Virtual IPs setup for our public IPs (DMZ), and OpenVPN assigned to one of these VIPs. I decided to run a specific OpenVPN server on port UDP 53 (DNS) and discovered that OpenVPN server for that configuration would not start unless I shutdown the following services first then start them back up after I start OVPN:

- dnsmasq
- ntpd

I believe this is a bug, since if the VIP interface is not selected on the DNS Forwarder configuration page pfsense should not block/use port 53 on that interface. Therefore, it should be available for OpenVPN to use without having to shutdown the other services first.
