Description

- local certificates (the personal INFN ones are OK
- username authentication via LDAP (a special group is needed to not open access to everyone)

Different routes for different users could also be used, so that we can access the console servers without exposing them to all the people.

Update: the openldap-auth-ldap package is broken, openvpn crashes when the plugin is used. Need to find another way.

We are now authenticating against the ldap server. An external perl script is doing the checks against the ldap server and the vpn_users group.
