that's true... the openvpn 1.6 release doesn't have a bug fix for this 
included.

depends on what you need. There shouldn't be any really critical bugs for 
simple setups with the openvpn2...

But for real production system I would suggest not to use openvpn 2 beta. But 
it is also strongly recommend not to use the release candiate of the service 
pack 2 on production system. So I guess it's not a production system at all.

You can also mix 1.6 and 2.0 systems normaly... So you only need to upgrade 
openvpn your sp2 machine.
