Hi,
i have a problem with the timestamp in OpenVPN log. Despite the correct system date/time, the timestamp is always 1 hour off (during summertime 2 hours off). Where does OpenVPN obtain the time from?
The OpenVPN-Server (version 2.3.6) is running on a gentoo installation.
I found this thread https://openvpn.net/archive/openvpn-use ... 00232.html and can reproduce that the timestamp is ok until it swtich into the jail.
I tried copy the timezone/localtime file into the jail, but it didn't help.
Maybe someone has some ideas.
Best regards,
Thraze

Re: Wrong timestamp in OpenVPN-Log
Did you set the necessary file permissions for the openvpn daemon to be able to read the file ?thraze wrote:I tried copy the timezone/localtime file into the jail, but it didn't help.

Re: Wrong timestamp in OpenVPN-Log
Oh man, it worked now. Of course timezone/localtime belongs into jail/etc/ ...
