Avoid repetition of "this config may cache passwords in memory" (v2)

For OpenVPN clients with long living connections, this message is repeated
everytime the connection is renegotiated.  This patch removes this behaviour
and will only show this warning once.

Patch ACKed on the developers meeting 2009-04-29.
