+Subject: [PATCH] core: use a default renegotiation interval of zero (rh
+ #969433)
+
+Since the client and server do not negotiate options, each side gets
+to specify its own --reneg-sec to control when each side renegotiates.
+OpenVPN defaults to 3600, so if the client and server don't agree this
+causes too-frequent renegotiations.
+
+This is worse with two-factor authentication, becuase it can mean that
+the client requests a password/PIN from the user much more often then
+the server actually wants.
