Want to know what the OpenBSD Foundation is doing with OpenSSL's code? Then you should read this blog. It's more suited for those who are able to read and understand C code. Skimming just the first page looks like the code is really in a bad condition - there are 39 pages so far (as of 15.07.2014). It's interesting to see what is being done. The only question is: Is this "list" complete?

NOTE: if you run Eddie or Hummingbird you don't need this guide, but you might need to get rid of update-systemd-resolved which, in one of its various working modes, can interfere fatally with DNS handling. This post describes how to accept OpenVPN servers DNS push on Linux, OpenBSD, FreeBSD and some other POSIX-compliant OS when: resolvconf package OR openresolv package is installed OpenVPN is run directly (i.e. NOT through any OpenVPN GUI/wrapper such as network-manager) OpenVPN version is 2.1 or higher Warning: the specified "update-resolv-conf" script path refers to many Linux distributions and OpenVPN package installation, but NOT to all of them. Please check the correct path of the mentioned file before proceeding (for example: it could be /usr/share/openvpn instead of /etc/openvpn). If the script is not on your system, you'll need to create it. See the typical script here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/OpenVPN#DNS Important: in the same above linked page, note that if you have a system based on systemd you might need some important modifications: Add to your OpenVPN configuration file(s), either in field "Custom Directives" of the Configuration Generator or by editing the configuration directly, the following lines: script-security 2 up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf In this way update-resolv-conf will record the DNS push and through resolvconf or openresolv will modify the nameserver accordingly. When OpenVPN quits, update-resolv-conf restores the previous nameserver line(s). Kind regards

In order to prevent leaks on *BSD and Mac OS X systems with pf, please see this guide by jessez: https://airvpn.org/topic/1713-win-mac-bsd-block-traffic-when-vpn-disconnects/page-2?do=findComment&comment=2532 Thank you very much jessez! Kind regards
