I've been using OpenVPN + Ralf's Radiusplugin for several months and recently moved away from server-side IP assignment. However, while I did use it, I found that in my configuration FreeRADIUS only assigned new IPs when the accounting for that user had stopped (ie, if it recieved a STOP packet). This meant, that once I'd crashed the openvpn server 3 times with users on it :-) there were many IP's who were 'lost' - their sessions had never ended, hence the IP was never returned to the pool.
<br><br>I was doing renegotiation every 20 minutes if I remember correctly, and the freeradius replied with the same IP for the user time and time again. Hence, I'm beginning to wonder if it's configuration-specific, because I didn't have any problems.
