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.
