Description

Hi,

I granted a user the "WebCfg - OpenVPN: Clients" privilege.

He can access the settings typing directly /vpn_openvpn_client.php in the browser, but there is no "VPN" > "OpenVPN" > "Clients" menu displayed in the menu bar.

That isn't how privileges and menu entries work. The menu has no means by which it can know about access to other tabs in those areas. It only knows about entries that are in the menu.

While it may be possible to code around that, there is no general solution for this, and coding a fix just for this one specific case seems like a bad idea.
