Hi All,
I am seeing a strange entry on the logs. I am trying to get OpenVPN gping on OmniOS and I am having two difficulties. One is that in the logs I am seeing
"using 160 bit message hash 'SHA1' for hmac authentication. This is strange because in the vars file, I selected EASYRSA_DIGEST "sha512" so I can't figure why it's still using sha1. Can anyone help me out please?

Ouch. My bad. Sorry. I just realized i missed "auth SHA512" in the server.conf file.

Just so you understand, using SHA512 is wasting CPU cycles on your VPN nodes.
--auth SHA1 (The default) is absolutely all you need as the Auth HMAC.

Thanks for that reminder. That is true.
