All releases of Amrita VPN


Release Notes: This release fixes a bug that caused amvpn to become CPU bound when there's a congestion/break in the outbound link. Basic flow control has been added. A keepalive message option has been added to help detect connection breaks as quickly as possible so that a fast reconnect can take place.


Release Notes: A problem that prevented amvpn from binding to low ports and a potential problem associated with uninitialized heap objects have been fixed. The initialization logic has been modified so that any startup problems will be logged before going into daemon mode. There is enhanced error/message logging and some code cleanup.


Release Notes: A monitoring facility for key/cert changes was added, along with an email notification framework for connection, disconnection, and key/cert file modification events. System-wide framework code was also added for making error handling more robust and helpful.


Release Notes: This release fixes an improper signal handling bug which had the potential to cause the server to abort under certain conditions.


Release Notes: This release fixes an error logging bug which caused server aborts, makes dropping of root privileges after startup mandatory for better security, and adds checks for accessibility of key/cert files.


Release Notes: DNS resolution is now used for server-ip. Automatic reconnection with a configurable number and delay was implemented. Connection through a proxy is now possible. Basic authentication is supported. The "amvpn-keytool client-side" option was added for use from the client side. The "amvpn-keytool validate" option was added to check against clock skews. The amvpn service was modified to process /etc/amvpn.d. For each config file present in /etc/amvpn.d, the amvpn service script will start an amvpn process.


Release Notes: This version enhances message logging at the server to include the Distinguished Name of the client connecting.


Release Notes: A problem that caused large downloads to fail was fixed and minor error handling enhancements were made.


Release Notes: This release allows connectivity between two remote Microsoft/Samba networks. A much-improved GNU autotools-based configure and build system was also added.


Release Notes: This release adds a high performance relay-loop implementation, improved error logging, and "amvpn-keytool" for easy key/cert creation/management.
