Description

All @ pfsense: thanks for this new version. Works like a charm on my alix2d13. Just noticed a minor bug in the openvpn-log file:
each connection gets 4 entries: whereas the 1st entry shows the correct local time (CET), the following 3 get added 2hrs (see att'd file).
Not that important, but since you're aiming at perfection...
Thanks again for the good work

Your system clock must have changed time zones between times they were started. If you reboot, or restart them all manually now, does that still happen?

Jim,
no there is no time zone change inbetween. In fact, if you notice, those 4 entries show exact minute and second, but the hour is wrong. However, I doublechecked and it's the first hour mentioned (the one in the line that logs 'user XYZ authenticated') that is wrong, whereas the hour given in the following entries is correct.

See the att'd file (last four lines):
I established openvpn connection at 7:38 am local time this morning (Germany, CET), the last three lines show the correct hour, whereas the fourth to last line (5:38:03) is two hours too early.
