OpenVPN compression setting ignored
0%
Description
Compression setting in the GUI is ignored. Always expects comp-lzo no matter what you select.
Log entry with "No LZO compression [Legacy style, comp-lzo no]" setting on a "Peer to Peer ( Shared key )" server: (notice comp-lzo)
Expected Remote Options String (VER=V4): 'V4,dev-type tun,link-mtu 1445,tun-mtu 1400,proto UDPv4,ifconfig 172.16.2.1 172.16.2.2,comp-lzo,cipher BF-CBC,auth SHA1,keysize 128,secret'
Also, adding "comp-lzo no" to Custom options has no effect.

Try "Enable Compression (stub)" which is the closest equivalent in the updated syntax.
Our code is formatting things properly as far as I can see, if it isn't working as you expect, you need to raise that issue with OpenVPN. Especially if it didn't work as a custom directive. The legacy comp-lzo notation is deprecated, but still present, so it's not terribly likely they will go out of their way to fix the old syntax.
