[SOLVED] OpenVPN: --ns-cert-type is DEPRECATED

When I connect with OpenVPN I get this warning:
Code:
[Select]
WARNING: --ns-cert-type is DEPRECATED. Use --remote-cert-tls instead.
pfSense fixed it already. Perhaps you can include the code.
https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=129676.0
I get many requests from my users about this warning. Currently I fixed it by manually
editing the config file.

Yes, I've been manually editing the ovpn file for some time.
At this notice it is because in the future this parameter will be changed in OpenVPN.
I believe development staff just need to change this parameter to generate automatically.

Looks like one of those perfect times to be contributing small fixes to OPNsense.
But now here it is...
https://github.com/opnsense/core/commit/73abc7c3d
# opnsense-patch 73abc7c3d
If you tell us that works it'll be in 17.7.4. But we still have time till 2.5 is out.
Cheers,
Franco

Hi,
No worries, I just meant the change doesn't really require coding so is a good entry level challenge for contribution.
Reporting and testing is just as important. Thank you for this. I've added the patch for 17.7.4 and will mark this solved.
Cheers,
Franco

Thanks for the feedback, 17.7.4 hits tomorrow and we're all set as previously discussed.
