Description Peter Müller 2023-08-23 14:02:00 UTC 
While testing Core Update 179, I just encountered the misc-prog for OpenVPN is not properly terminating the openvpn-authenticator process, as the latter has a different cmdline in the process table that the one openvpnctrl is looking for:

root     32270  0.0  0.2  16312 10352 ?        S    15:50   0:00 /usr/bin/python3 /usr/sbin/openvpn-authenticator -d

It tries to run the following, which does not work:

# killall /usr/sbin/openvpn-authenticator
/usr/sbin/openvpn-authenticator: no process found

This bug does not seem to have any major consequences, but does not strike me as intended behaviour nevertheless.

This is going to be fixed with OpenVPN 2.6.
