Hello,

I see that the OpenVPN versions are a bit behind for the OpenVPN U2F releases on PPA. Are these releases something that will pick back up again, or are they being deprecated?

Thanks!

Brad

Hi Brad,

The upstream u2fval project has been deprecated by Yubico, which is why plugin updates have ceased. We're in the process of transitioning the server-side example to use FIDO2 frameworks instead.

In the meantime I'll see if we can get an update out to the OpenVPN 2.5 package that integrates with the plugin, to at least simplify keeping that up-to-date. It's also possible to directly download the package patches from launchpad.net and build your own version as well.

Cheers,
James
