[1.0.3 2005-08-18] |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
There was a bug in the code that expands variables in |
|
registry values. If the expanded string was longer than |
|
the original string it got incorrectly truncated. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0.2 2005-07-27] |
|
|
|
Pass paths read in OpenVPN GUI's registry values through |
|
ExpandEnvironmentStrings(). This allows the use of Windows |
|
variables like %HOMEPATH% or %PROGRAMFILES%. This allows |
|
multiple users on the same system to have their own set |
|
of config files and keys in their home dir. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0.1 2005-06-10] |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
The Change Password feature did not work correctly when TABs |
|
were used in the config file between the key/pkcs12 keyword and |
|
the accual path to the key file. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0 2005-04-21] |
|
|
|
No changes |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-rc5 2005-03-29] |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
[Pre/Dis]Connect scripts were not executed when starting or stopping |
|
the OpenVPN Service, or using "Service Only" mode. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-rc4 2005-02-17] |
|
|
|
Increased the width of buttons and space between text labels and edit |
|
controls on dialogs to ease localization of OpenVPN GUI. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
Some fixed text strings was introduced in the code in 1.0-rc3. These |
|
are moved to the resource file now to allow localization. |
|
|
|
If starting the OpenVPN service failed, OpenVPN GUI would get |
|
stuck with a yellow icon. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-rc3 2005-02-14] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
New registry value (show_balloon) to control whether to show the |
|
"Connected Balloon" or not. show_ballon can have the following values |
|
|
|
0=Never show any balloon. |
|
1=Show balloon when the connection establishes (default). |
|
2=Show balloon every time OpenVPN has reconnected (old behavior). |
|
|
|
Show "Connected since: XXX" and "Assigned IP: X.X.X.X" in the tray |
|
icon tip msg. |
|
|
|
If a batch file named xxx_pre.bat exists in the config folder, where |
|
xxx is the same name as an OpenVPN config file, this will be executed |
|
before OpenVPN is launced. |
|
|
|
If a batch file named xxx_down.bat exists in the config folder, where |
|
xxx is the same name as an OpenVPN config file, this will be executed |
|
on disconnect, but before the OpenVPN tunnel is closed. |
|
|
|
Registry value "show_script_window" controls whether _up, _down and |
|
_pre scripts should execute in the background or in a visible cmd-line |
|
window. |
|
|
|
Registry value "[pre/dis]connectscript_timeout" controls how long to |
|
wait for each script to finish. |
|
|
|
Updated information on the about dialog. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
Removed unused code that tried to determine the path to "Program |
|
Files". This code caused an error in some rare occasions. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-rc2 2005-01-12] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Support for one level of subdirectories below the config directory. |
|
This means that if you have multiple connections, you can now put |
|
them in a seperate subdirectory together with their keys and certs. |
|
|
|
"Service Only" mode. This is a mode that makes OpenVPN GUI more |
|
friendly to use for non-admin users to control the OpenVPN Service. |
|
Enable this mode by setting the registry value "service_only" to "1". |
|
|
|
In this mode the following happends: |
|
|
|
* The normal "Connect", "Disconnect" and "Show Status" is removed. |
|
|
|
* The Service menu items "Start", "Stop" and "Restart" is replaced |
|
by "Connect", "Disconnect" and "Reconnect" directly on the main |
|
menu. These now control the OpenVPN Service instead. |
|
|
|
* Dubbleclicking the icon starts the OpenVPN Service. |
|
|
|
* Dubbleclicking the icon when the service is running brings up a |
|
dialog asking if you want to disconnect. |
|
|
|
* The Proxy Settings menu item is removed as it can't control the service anyway. |
|
|
|
The "OpenVPN Service started" dialog msg is replaced with a |
|
balloon msg. |
|
|
|
Ask the user if he really wants to exit OpenVPN GUI if the OpenVPN |
|
Service is running. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
Full rights were required to control the OpenVPN Service. Now only |
|
Start/Stop permissions are required, which allows a normal user to |
|
control the OpenVPN Service if these rights are granted to the user. |
|
(Can be done with subinacl.exe from the resource kit) |
|
|
|
When passwords were retrieved from a user, OpenVPN GUI received them |
|
in the default windows codepage (ISO 8859-1 on english XP), and this |
|
was passed on untouched to OpenVPN. When OpenVPN is run from command- |
|
line on the other hand, the old DOS CP850 codepage is used. This |
|
caused passwords containing non-ASCII (7-bit) chars that worked from |
|
cmd-line not to work from OpenVPN GUI. This is now solved by |
|
retrieving passwords in unicode and translate them to CP850 before |
|
supplying them to OpenVPN. |
|
|
|
Re-scan the config dir for new files when dubble-clicking the tray |
|
icon. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-rc1 2005-01-06] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Show a warning message if "log" or "log-append" is found in the config |
|
file. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixed: |
|
Added a bunch of compiler warnings which revealed a lot of minor |
|
programming errors. Mostly cast conversion errors between signed and |
|
unsigned intergers. All fixed now. |
|
|
|
Set focus on the log window when the status window is re-opened to make |
|
sure the log is scrolled automatically. |
|
|
|
Set focus on the log window when clicking disconnect to allow the log |
|
to continue scrolling automatically until OpenVPN is terminated. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta26 2004-12-04] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Show "Connecting to: xxx" msg in tray icon tip message in addition to |
|
the previously displayed "Connected to:" msg. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
Don't ask if you are sure you want to change your password to an EMPTY |
|
password if you're not allowed to use passwords shorter than 8 chars. |
|
|
|
Clear password buffers after use to avoid having passwords in memory. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta25 2004-12-01] |
|
|
|
Changed button labels on the status dialog from DisConnect and ReConnect |
|
to Disconnect and Reconnect. |
|
|
|
Don't show "Assigned IP:" at all in the connected balloon if no IP |
|
address is known, as when a real remote DHCP server is used. |
|
|
|
Stripped out the last hardcoded strings to the resource file. |
|
|
|
Raised maximum number of configs from 20 to 50. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
If OpenVPN printed a line longer that 1024 chars, OpenVPN GUI would crash. |
|
This could happend when using "verb 5" or higher as OpenVPN then prints |
|
an "r" or "w" for every packet without any line breaks. A new line will |
|
now be inserted when 1024 chars is reached. |
|
|
|
Ask if you want to close active connections when WM_CLOSE is received. |
|
|
|
Handle WM_QUERYENDSESSION and WM_ENDSESSION correctly by closing any |
|
active connections and then terminate. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta24 2004-11-15] |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
Some openssl #includes were not #ifdef:ed when building a nochangepsw |
|
version causing the build to fail if the openssl headers were not |
|
available. |
|
|
|
When using OpenVPN 1.5/1.6 and entering a false private key passphrase, |
|
OpenVPN GUI would falsely think that the user attempted to start another |
|
connection. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta23 2004-11-08] |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
Passphrase protected keys stored in MS Certificate Store did not work |
|
due to the way the openvpn console window was hidden. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta22 2004-11-05] |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
OpenVPN GUI did not pass a CR/LF correctly after supplying OpenVPN |
|
with the private key passphrase! OpenVPN 2.0-beta12 and higher which |
|
uses a new prompt worked, but not earlier versions of OpenVPN. |
|
|
|
If the Shell (explorer.exe) is restarted, OpenVPN GUI did not |
|
re-register the tray icon. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta21 2004-10-29] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Added support for username/password based authentication. |

|
|
|
Removed duplicate length-check on setting new password. |
|
|
|
Fixed error dialog which had the error message shown in window caption. |
|
|
|
Status windows did not change to yellow icon while ReConnecting. |
|
|
|
DisConnect and ReConnect button was not disabled after a termination. |
|
This bug was introduced with beta20. |
|
|
|
The Change Password feature did not parse the key/pkcs12 line in the |
|
config file correctly if there was TABs after the filename. |
|
|
|
The Change Password feature did not work if a relative path with |
|
subdirectories was used. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta20 2004-10-18] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Accept the new passphrase prompt introduced with OpenVPN 2.0-beta12. |
|
|
|
When the machine is about to enter suspend mode the connection is |
|
closed. When the machine is powered up again, the connection is |
|
re-established. |
|
|
|
Registry option "disconnect_on_suspend". Set to zero to disable the |
|
above feature. |
|
|
|
ReConnect button on the status dialog. |
|
|
|
Registry option "allow_proxy" to hide the Proxy Settings menu item. |
|
|
|
Registry option "silent_connection" that suppresses the status |
|
dialog from being showed while connecting. |
|
|
|
Command-line option to set the time to wait for the connect script |
|
to finish. |
|
|
|
Icon color now reflects the status of the OpenVPN Service. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
Included shellapi.h with the sourcecode, as the one distributed with |
|
the current stable version of MinGW miss some definitions. |
|
|
|
When closing OpenVPN GUI it waits for all connections to close before |
|
exiting (Max 5 sec). |
|
|
|
Made the password dialog always be on top of other windows. |
|
|
|
Fixed a bug that occured if opening the log file for writing failed. |
|
(which happends if you try to run OpenVPN GUI without admin rights) |
|
|
|
The menuitems on the OpenVPN Service menu was incorrectly enabled/ |
|
disabled. This bug was introduced with beta19 as a result of the |
|
dynamic rescanning for configs on every menu opening. |
|
|
|
Starting OpenVPN GUI with OpenVPN 1.5/1.6 installed and OpenVPN |
|
Service running failed with previous versions. (CreateEvent() error) |
|
|
|
The installation package did not remove the OpenVPN-GUI registry key |
|
on uninstall. |
|
|
|
Removed dependency on libeay32.dll for the no change password build. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta19 2004-09-22] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
The menu is restructured. Previous versions had all "actions" on the |
|
main menu, and a submenu with all configs for every action. This version |
|
lists all configs on the main menu, and have a submenu with actions. |
|
|
|
If only one config exist, the actions are placed on the main menu. |
|
|
|
If no connection is running, the config dir is re-scanned for configs |
|
every time the menu is opened. |
|
|
|
If a file exists in the config folder named xxxx_up.bat, where xxxx |
|
is the same name as an existing config file, this batch file will be |
|
executed after a connection has been establish. If the batch file |
|
fails (return an exitcode other than 0), an error message is displayed. |
|
|
|
Auto-hide status window after a connection is established and show |
|
a systray info balloon instead. |
|
|
|
Show assigned IP address in connected balloon. |
|
|
|
Don't allow starting multiple instances of OpenVPN GUI. |
|
|
|
Added a cancel button to the Ask Password dialog. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
Removed [nopass] parameter on --connect option as the password prompt |
|
is only showed if the private key really is passphrase protected. |
|
|
|
Show an error msg if --connect refers to a non existing config file. |
|
|
|
Ignore case of config file extension. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta18 2004-09-13] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
New Icons! Supplied by Radek Hladik. |
|
|
|
If only one config file exists, dubble-clicking the systray icon will |
|
start that connection. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
|
|
A bug in the GetRegKey() function caused OpenVPN GUI sometimes to |
|
fail starting with the following error msg: |
|
Error creating exit_event when checking openvpn version. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta17 2004-09-02] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
A dialog to configure Proxy Settings. You can now set http-proxy or |
|
socks-proxy address and port from the GUI. You can also make the GUI |
|
ask for proxy username and password, which will then be supplied to |
|
OpenVPN via an auth file. |
|
|
|
Use Internet Explorer Proxy Settings (Ewan Bhamrah Harley) |
|
|
|
A "Hide" button on the status dialog. |
|
|
|
Show an error message if the client certificate has expired or is not |
|
yet valid. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
If OpenVPN was installed in a non default folder, OpenVPN GUI would try |
|
to locate openvpn.exe, log-dir and conf-dir in the default openvpn |
|
folder anyway. Fixed in this version. |
|
|
|
OpenVPN GUI tried to check the status of the OpenVPN Service even |
|
if the service menu was disabled in the registry, which caused an |
|
error message to be showed if the service was not installed properly. |
|
|
|
Wait for two seconds when exiting OpenVPN GUI, so running openvpn |
|
processes can exit cleanly. |
|
|
|
Disable Disconnect menu item while waiting for an openvpn process |
|
to terminate. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta16 2004-08-25] |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
|
|
When only a filename (no full path) was specified in the config file |
|
for --key or --pkcs12, OpenVPN GUI did not look for the file in the |
|
config dir when changing password. Fixed in this version. |
|
|
|
|
|
[1.0-beta15 2004-08-25] |
|
|
|
When changing password, require new password to be at least 8 chars. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta14 2004-08-24] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Change password of the private key. Both PEM and PKCS #12 files |
|
are supported. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta13 2004-08-19] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Shows which connections are connected in the TrayIcon tip msg |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
The "Enter Passphrase" dialog was a bit miss-designed. The textlabel |
|
and the editbox was overlapping a few pixels which made it look a |
|
little strange in some occasions. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta12 2004-08-16] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Show a Status Window while connecting that shows the output from |
|
OpenVPN in real-time. |
|
|
|
A new menuitem to show the real-time status window. |
|
|
|
If only one connection is running, dubbleclicking the trayicon will |
|
show the status window for the running connection. |
|
|
|
Show a yellow TrayIcon while connecting. |
|
|
|
Detect "restarting process" message, and shows "Connecting" status |
|
until a new connected msg is received. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta11a 2004-08-15] |
|
|
|
Bug Fix: |
|
The exit_event handle was not closed after checking the openvpn version |
|
which made it impossible to restart connections with OpenVPN versions |
|
lower than 2.0-beta6. You received the following msg when trying to |
|
connect a second time: |
|
|
|
"I seem to be running as a service, but my exit event object is telling |
|
me to exit immediately" |
|
|
|
This bug was introduced with OpenVPN GUI v1.0-beta10. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta11 2004-08-09] |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
This version is bundled with a patched version of openvpn that will |
|
output a log message AFTER routes have been added to the system. This |
|
allows the GUI to report "Connected" after this msg. This patch will |
|
be included in next official release of OpenVPN 2.0-beta, so the GUI |
|
will continue to work with future official releases of openvpn. Older |
|
versions of openvpn will still work with this version of OpenVPN GUI, |
|
but "Connected" will then be reported before routes are added as it |
|
did with OpenVPN GUI 1.0-beta10. |
|
|
|
If wrong passphrase is entered, openvpn will automatically be restarted |
|
a specified nr of times (default 3), which allows the user to re-enter |
|
his passphrase. |
|
|
|
Number of passphase attempts to allow can be specified with reg-key |
|
"passphrase_attempts" or cmd-line option with the same name. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
An empty line was printed in the log when prompting for passphrase. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta10 2004-08-08] |
|
|
|
Default registry setting for showing the "Edit Config" menuitem is |
|
changed to "1" (Show it). If a previous version of OpenVPN GUI has |
|
been used, the registry key will of cource not change without manually |
|
changing it. |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Check version of openvpn.exe, so it can support all versions of OpenVPN |
|
without a special build of OpenVPN GUI. Tested with 1.5.0, 1.6.0, |
|
2.0-beta4, 2.0-beta7 and 2.0-beta10. Older versions than 2.0-beta6 still |
|
only support one simultaneous connection though. |
|
|
|
Redirect StdIn/StdOut/StdErr through OpenVPN GUI, so we can pass the |
|
private key passphrase to openvpn without requiring a patched version |
|
of OpenVPN. This also allows OpenVPN GUI to prompt for a passphrase only |
|
when it's needed. |
|
|
|
If connecting fails, ask the user if he wants to view the log. |
|
|
|
Show a dialog while connecting to allow the user to abort the connection. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
Disable both "Connect" and "DisConnect" while connecting. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta9 2004-07-23] |
|
|
|
The passphrase support added in v1.5-beta1 has been merched into the v1.0 |
|
source so v1.5 does not exist any longer! |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Cmd-line options: |
|
--connect cnn [nopass]: Autoconnect to "cnn" at startup. If "nopass" |
|
is used, no passphrase will be asked for. |
|
--help : Show list of cmd-line options. |
|
|
|
And all registry settings is now available as cmd-line options: |
|
--exe_path : Path to openvpn.exe.\n" |
|
--config_dir : Path to dir to search for config files in.\n" |
|
--ext_string : Extension on config files.\n" |
|
--log_dir : Path to dir where log files will be saved.\n" |
|
--priority_string : Priority string (See install.txt for more info).\n" |
|
--append_string : 1=Append to log file. 0=Truncate logfile.\n" |
|
--log_viewer : Path to log viewer.\n" |
|
--editor : Path to config editor.\n" |
|
--allow_edit : 1=Show Edit Config menu\n" |
|
--allow_service : 1=Show Service control menu\n" |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
If the GUI was started from a cmd prompt and no passphrase was given |
|
openvpn.exe would query the user for the passphrase from the console |
|
(which is not showed), so the openvpn process got stuck there. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.5-beta1 2004-07-16] |
|
|
|
This version is based on v1.0-beta8. |
|
|
|
v1.5 is just a temporary version in wait for the management interface |
|
to OpenVPN. When this is available features added in v1.5 will be |
|
rewritten to use this interface instead in v2.0 of OpenVPN-GUI. |
|
|
|
New Features: |
|
Support for passphrase protected private keys. OpenVPN-GUI will now |
|
always query the user for a passphrase before connecting. The |
|
passphrase is then supplied to OpenVPN via the --passphrase option. |
|
This requires a patched version of OpenVPN that supports the |
|
--passphrase option. A patched version that supports this is included |
|
in the OpenVPN-GUI v1.5-betaX installation package. |
|
|
|
The user will always be asked for a passphrase even if the private |
|
key is not encrypted. This is because the GUI does not know in advance |
|
if the key is encrypted or not. This will be fixed in v2.0 when we |
|
have the management interface ready. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta8 2004-07-16] |
|
New Features: |
|
Tray Icon now shows red/green if any connection is established. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
If something failed before starting openvpn.exe, exit_event and |
|
log_handle was not closed correctly which could make it impossible |
|
to make any more connections without restarting OpenVPN-GUI. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta7 2004-07-08] |
|
New Features: |
|
A seperate build version supporting OpenVPN v1.5, v1.6 and the |
|
2.0 series before beta6. This version only supports having one |
|
connection running at the same time. |
|
|
|
Added an About box. |
|
|
|
If there are active connections when "Exit OpenVPN-GUI" is selected, |
|
a "Are you sure you want to exit?" box is displayed. |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes |
|
It was not possible to have cmd-line options on the reg-keys |
|
"log_viewer" or "editor". This is now possible. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta6 2004-07-05] |
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
The default values for paths created by beta3, beta4 and beta5 used |
|
hardcoded values for "C:\windows..." and "C:\program files...", which |
|
did not work on some localized Windows versions that is not using |
|
these folders. This is fixed now by getting those pathnames from the |
|
system. |
|
|
|
*** If you have installed beta3-beta5 you need to manualy delete the |
|
whole HKEY_LM\SOFTWARE\OpenVPN-GUI key in the registry. The correct |
|
reg-keys will then be recreated when OpenVPN-GUI is started. *** |

|
|
[v1.0-beta5 2004-07-04] |
|
New Features: |
|
Menu-commands to Start/Stop/Restart the OpenVPN Service. Enable this |
|
feature by setting the following reg-key to 1: |
|
HKEY_LM\SOFTWARE\OpenVPN-GUI\allow_service |
|
|
|
Bug Fixes: |
|
v1.0-beta4 always opened the registry with write-access, which made |
|
it imposible to start it without administator rights. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta4 2004-07-04] |
|
New Features: |
|
Menu-command to open a config-file for editing. Enable this feature |
|
by setting the following reg-key to 1: |
|
HKEY_LM\SOFTWARE\OpenVPN-GUI\allow_edit |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta3 2004-07-04] |
|
New Features: |
|
Log Viewer. As default OpenVPN-GUI launches Notepad to view the log. |
|
The program used to view the log can be changed with this reg-key: |
|
HKEY_LM\SOFTWARE\OpenVPN-GUI\log-viewer |
|
|
|
OpenVPN-GUI now uses its own registry-keys, instead of the same as |
|
the service wrapper uses. It now stores its values under this key: |
|
HKEY_LM\SOFTWARE\OpenVPN-GUI\ |
|
If this key does not exist, OpenVPN-GUI will create it with the same |
|
default values as the service-wrapper uses, so if you want to use the |
|
service-wrapper on config-files indepentent of the GUI you should |
|
change the "config-dir" key to another folder. |
|
|
|
|
|
[v1.0-beta2 2004-07-03] |
|
New Features: |
|
Connect/Disconnect now shows a sub-menu so each connection can be |
|
brought up/down individually. |
|
|
|
Upon connect OpenVPN-GUI will wait for 3 seconds and then check if |
|
the openvpn process is still alive and report "Connection successful" |
|
only if this is the case. |
|
|
|
OpenVPN-GUI monitors the openvpn processes it has started, and if a |
|
process is terminated before the user has chosen to take it down, this |
|
will be reported to the user. |
|
|
|
If no config files is found when OpenVPN-GUI is started, it will |
|
notify the user of this and terminate. |
|
