option auth not set correctly for PEM auth /etc/config/openvpn

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install OpenVPN package.
2. Enable OpenVPN in x-wrt.
3. Set Authnetication Method to PEM
4) Save Changes
5) Upload CA.crt
6) Save changes
7) Upload client.crt
8) Save changes
9) Upload client.key
10) Save changes
11) Apply changes.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would expect /etc/config/openvpn to look like:
config openvpn general
        option mode     'client'
        option proto    'udp'
        option port     '1194'
        option auth     'pem'

config openvpn client
        option ipaddr   '81.137.171.17'
        option auth "pem"

Instead the confi openvpn client bit is wrong and is set as
config openvpn client
        option ipaddr   '81.137.171.17'
        option auth ""

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system and web
browser?
Browser: Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 5 (opensuse 11).
OpenWRT for Kamikaze version: OpenWrt Kamikaze - With X-Wrt Extensions 7.09

Please provide any additional info below.

It is easy to work around as you can use the file editor to change the
entry by hand.

The easiest fix for this is to modify /etc/init.d/webifopenvpn

Line 32 of the start() function should be changed from
case "$CONFIG_client_auth" in

to

case "$CONFIG_general_auth" in

In addition the following changes are needed to 
/www/cgi-bin/webif/vpn-openvpn.sh

Change line 37-38 from

        FORM_openvpn_cli_auth="$CONFIG_client_auth"
        FORM_openvpn_cli_auth=${FORM_openvpn_general_auth:-cert)}

to

        FORM_openvpn_cli_auth="$CONFIG_general_auth"
        #FORM_openvpn_cli_auth=${FORM_openvpn_general_auth:-cert)}
