Re: [Radiusplugin-users] OpenVPN & Radius Plugin

[Ralf Lübben]

Hi,

from the valgrind log I cannot indicate any serious problem, but 
also the message

Options error: In [CMD-LINE]:1: Error opening configuration file:
server.conf

appears at the end. Do you have any idea why?

Can you also try valgrind with "--trace-children=no"?

Regards,
Ralf
