#OpenVPN 2.7.0 has been released!

#kernel #release | Antonio Quartulli

𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐬! 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐕𝐏𝐍 𝐯2.7.0 𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐨𝐮𝐭!⚡💻 This release has been cooking in the oven for quite a while and it's finally ready. It comes with many goodies (please have a look at the ChangeLog[1] for a complete list), but among those I am happy to highlight: • 𝐦𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢-𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭: a single process can bind to multiple addresses, ports and protocols, eliminating the need for separate instances. One process to rule them all! • 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐰 '𝐨𝐯𝐩𝐧' 𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐥 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞: it was already merged in Linux v6.16, but with OpenVPN v2.7.0 it gets finally turned on. No need to change anything, just make sure the 'ovpn' #kernel module is installed in your system (note: it is part of Linux v6.16 and later; on older kernels you’ll need to compile it yourself or use the package provided by your distribution). This major #release got quite some testing from various parties, including external auditors. Therefore we're quite confident in its quality and we are a looking forward to seeing people jumping onto it. Wanna learn more about any of these features? Feel free to reach out! And also...please report bugs or feature requests on the OpenVPN GitHub tracker[2]. [1] https://lnkd.in/dY6_mhJn [2] https://lnkd.in/dgxhVdWS
