     Warning: Tunnelblick is using 'openvpn-down-root.so', so the route-pre-down script will not be used. You can override this by providing a custom route-pre-down script (which may be a copy of Tunnelblick's standard route-pre-down script) in a Tunnelblick VPN Configuration. However, that script will not be executed as root unless the 'user' and 'group' options are removed from the OpenVPN configuration file. If the 'user' and 'group' options are removed, then you don't need to use a custom route-pre-down script.OpenVPN started successfully.

I tried to disable "ns-cert-type server" - but it didn't help at all. I also remade every single certificate, without any luck.

I hope you guys have a clue.
