Description

The OpenVPN compression settings available in the GUI: "No preference", "Disabled", "Enabled with adaptive compression" and "Enabled without adaptive compression", do not produce the expected behavior in the running server.

They appear in the .conf file as, respectively:
No setting
comp-lzo no
comp-lzo adaptive
comp-lzo yes

Some or all of those settings need updating to work with the current server version.

  • Description updated (diff)
  • Category set to OpenVPN

  • Target version set to 2.4.0

Specifically it needs to make use of "comp-noadapt" to forcefully disable adaptive compression at least in the "No Preference" case, but the wording needs some thought.

This seems to be OK now. The comp-noadapt change was confirmed to work on an affected system (remote client had no LZO compiled in)
