OpenVPN Issues since Upgrade

Hi,

Since we have been upgraded to OpenVPN 2.1_rc7 i486-pc-linux-gnu [SSL]
[LZO2] [EPOLL] built on Jun 11 2008 , one of my machines fails to
connect to the VPN tunnel if sudo /etc/init.d/openvpn start is used.

/var/log/syslog contains repeats of 

Jun 19 08:26:47 gavinlew-newark-desktop ovpn-client[21870]: SENT CONTROL
[server]: 'PUSH_REQUEST' (status=1)

However, if I simply launch sudo openvpn /etc/openvpn/client.conf & ,
the client authenticates correctly and the VPN tunnel is established.

Has something changed in the upgraded package , or
in /etc/defaults/openvpn with regards to this behaviour?

Kind Regards,

Gavin
