domain socket, for example:
management /tmp/openvpn unix
Also added management-client-user and management-client-group
directives to control which processes are allowed to connect
to the socket.

arguments since all scripts were called by system().
The security hardening changes made to 2.1_rc9 no longer
use system(), but rather use the safer execve or CreateProcess
system calls. The security hardening also introduced a
backward incompatibility with 2.1_rc8 and earlier in that
script parameters were no longer shell-expanded, so
for example:
client-connect "docc CLIENT-CONNECT"
would fail to work because execve would try to execute
a script called "docc CLIENT-CONNECT" instead of "docc"
with "CLIENT-CONNECT" as the first argument.
This patch fixes the issue, bringing the script argument
semantics back to pre 2.1_rc9 behavior in order to preserve
backward compatibility while still using execve or CreateProcess
to execute the script/executable.

* All external programs and scripts are now called by execve() on unix and
CreateProcess on Windows.
* The system() function is no longer used.
* Argument lists for external programs and scripts are now built by the new
argv_printf function which natively outputs to string arrays (i.e.
char *argv[] lists), never truncates its output, and eliminates the security
issues inherent in formatting and parsing command lines, and dealing with
argument quoting.
* The --script-security directive has been added to offer policy controls on
OpenVPN's execution of external programs and scripts.
Also added a new plugin example (openvpn/plugin/examples/log.c) that logs
information to stdout for every plugin method called by OpenVPN.

password if the verbosity was set to a high debug level
such as 7 or higher. Normally this would only be used by
developers. Now, even at high debug levels, the password
will not be output.

by allowing openvpn --mktun to be used with --user and --group
to set the UID/GID of the tun device node. Also added --iproute
option to allow an alternative command to be executed in place
of the default iproute2 command (Alon Bar-Lev).

change the value of an existing name=value pair
would delay the freeing of the memory held by
the previous name=value pair until the underlying
client instance object is closed.
This could cause a server that handles long-term
client connections, resulting in many periodic calls
to verify_callback, to needlessly grow the env_set
memory allocation until the underlying client instance
object is closed.

Implemented AUTO_USERID using
MD5(MAC address(primary network adapter)).
Currently implemented for Linux and Windows.
Basically if ENABLE_AUTO_USERID is defined,
the --auth-user-pass option will not prompt
for username/password, but will rather generate
a unique username and blank password.

malicious or compromised server could potentially receive
"setenv" configuration directives from the server which could
cause arbitrary code execution on the client via a LD_PRELOAD
attack. A successful attack appears to require that (a) the
client has agreed to allow the server to push configuration
directives to it by including "pull" or the macro "client" in
its configuration file, (b) the client configuration file uses
a scripting directive such as "up" or "down", (c) the client
succesfully authenticates the server, (d) the server is
malicious or has been compromised and is under the control of
the attacker, and (e) the attacker has at least some level of
pre-existing control over files on the client (this might be
accomplished by having the server respond to a client web request
with a specially crafted file).
The fix is to disallow "setenv" to be pushed to clients from
the server, and to add a new directive "setenv-safe" which is
pushable from the server, but which appends "OPENVPN_" to the
name of each remotely set environmental variable.

Allow plugin and push directives to have multiple
parameters specified instead of only 1 quoted
parameter.
Allow plugin and push directives to have multi-line
parameter lists, such as:
<plugin>
my-plugin.so
parm1
parm2
</plugin>

* Added code to make sure that the local PATH environmental
variable points to the Windows system32 directory.
* Added new --ip-win32 adaptive mode which tries 'dynamic'
and then fails over to 'netsh' if the DHCP negotiation fails.
* Made --ip-win32 adaptive the default.

get_user_pass.
(1) Allow an additional longer prompt string
to be passed to the management interface
client, in addition to the request type
string.
(2) Allow the management interface client to
return a string, usually "ok" or "cancel"
as the third argument to "needok" command.
(3) Renamed "ok" command in management interface
to "needok".
(4) Edited management-notes.txt to reflect new
needok feature.
(5) See init.c:125 for new code example.
