The above seems to be the real issue. Looking the options pushed, I see "peer-id" changing every time. From 0 to 4 to 0 to 3 to 0.

When running 2.3.8 against a git HEAD server, a client restart (caused by, e.g., ping-restart or SIGUSR1) will often get a different peer-id in its post-restart PUSH_REPLY message than it did at initial bringup. This triggers the "Pulled options changed on restart, will need to close and reopen TUN/TAP device." behavior; if privileges have been dropped, the interface configuration commands will fail, causing the OpenVPN process to exit.
I am in fact running 2.3.8. Guess I'll need an upgrade. I'd still like to know what prompted this, on 29 August. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (11.4°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: heroes+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: heroes+owner@opensuse.org
