Basic info
- Time: Monday 1st February 2016, 20:00 CET (19:00 UTC)
- Place: #openvpn-meeting channel on Freenode IRC network
Topics
- Interactive Service
- Review the service component
- The Windows service
- openvpnserv.exe is crude, has many issues (e.g. ticket #595 and Selva's email) and nobody has stepped in to fix the code
- There is now a drop-in replacement, openvpnserv2, written in C#
- mattock's ovpnsvcsetup (a simple configuration frontend for NSSM) has not progressed much due to lack of time
- Questions:
- What do we do about openvpnserv.exe?
- How do we handle reviews if we decide to make the service component a separate subproject?
- Do we bundle openvpnserv.exe (replacement) in the standard installers or make it a separate download?
- Implementation details for openvpnserv.exe
- Handling of sleep+resume: should the service forcibly kill openvpn.exe on sleep, or restart it only if/when it dies after resume? Usability issues (e.g. broken connections)?
