manu eabb682a3d Upgrade OpenVPN to 2.3.0
Bump openvpn-acct-wtmpx to add its licence and to take into account the
new location of plugin directory

Significant changes since 2.2.x:
 * Full IPv6 support
 * SSL layer modularised, enabling easier implementation for other SSL
   libraries
 * PolarSSL support as a drop-in replacement for OpenSSL
 * New plug-in API providing direct certificate access, improved logging API
   and easier to extend in the future
 * Added 'dev_type' environment variable to scripts and plug-ins - which
   is set to 'TUN' or 'TAP'
 * New feature: --management-external-key - to provide access to the
   encryption keys via the management interface
 * New feature: --x509-track option, more fine grained access to X.509
   fields in scripts and plug-ins
 * New feature: --client-nat support
 * New feature: --mark which can mark encrypted packets from the tunnel,
   suitable for more advanced routing and firewalling
 * New feature: --management-query-proxy - manage proxy settings via the
   management interface (supercedes --http-proxy-fallback)
 * New feature: --stale-routes-check, which cleans up the internal
   routing table
 * New feature: --x509-username-field, where other X.509v3 fields can be
   used for the authentication instead of Common Name
 * Improved client-kill management interface command
 * Improved UTF-8 support - and added --compat-names to provide backwards
   compatibility with older scripts/plug-ins
 * Improved auth-pam with COMMONNAME support, passing the certificate's
   common name in the PAM conversation
 * More options can now be used inside <connection> blocks
 * Completely new build system, enabling easier cross-compilation and
   Windows builds
 * Much of the code has been better documented
 * Many documentation updates
 * Plenty of bug fixes and other code clean-ups

In order to enable the use of this module, add this directive to your
OpenVPN server configuration file
plugin ${OPENVPN_PLUGINSDIR}/openvpn-acct-wtmpx.so openvpn
In order to write to wtmpx(5) databases, OpenVPN needs root privileges.
It acquires them for that purpose by using the logwtmpx program, which
is set-UID root and executable by group nobody. Make sure that group does
fit the unprivilegied group you use for OpenVPN.
