How can I log disconnects?

Post by varnav » Mon Jun 06, 2016 11:13 am

Hello!

OpenVPN server log is great at logging connections. But how can I log error-free disconnects (closed sessions)? I need to log time when someone disconnects normally.

You will probably need to add --explicit-exit-notify 3 to your client config
