Description

Hello, I try to revoke a client certificate using the commands shown in the documentation:

docker run --rm -i --volumes-from vpn -e "EASYRSA_BATCH=1" kylemanna/openvpn easyrsa revoke toto
docker run --rm -i --volumes-from vpn kylemanna/openvpn easyrsa gen-crl

The process seems to be ok, but when I try to connect to vpn with my revocated certificate, it works... The docker-openvpn logs:

Fri Jan 29 23:17:04 2016 172.17.0.1:41187 CRL CHECK OK: CN=blah
Fri Jan 29 23:17:04 2016 172.17.0.1:41187 VERIFY OK: depth=1, CN=blah
Fri Jan 29 23:17:04 2016 172.17.0.1:41187 CRL CHECK OK: CN=toto
Fri Jan 29 23:17:04 2016 172.17.0.1:41187 VERIFY OK: depth=0, CN=toto

Does this reaction normal ?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Verify that the CRL file is correctly generated and mounted, and that the OpenVPN configuration includes 'crl verify' pointing to the correct path. Check that the CRL file is updated after revocation and that the OpenVPN server reloads the CRL.
