I am trying to get OpenVPN working (for the ninth consecutive day, restarting with a clean Ubuntu 18.04 one or more times per day) and I am now getting a couple warnings in both the client and server that I cannot understand and do not believe I can fix. Here's what the client says:
WARNING: 'link-mtu' is used inconsistently, local='link-mtu 1589', remote='link-mtu 1590'
WARNING: 'comp-lzo' is present in remote config but missing in local config, remote='comp-lzo'
and here is what the server says at the same time:
WARNING: 'link-mtu' is used inconsistently, local='link-mtu 1590', remote='link-mtu 1589'
WARNING: 'comp-lzo' is present in local config but missing in remote config, local='comp-lzo'[/code]
The thing is, the characters "mtu" do not appear
AT ALL in either server.conf or client.ovpn, so I cannot figure out (a) how I got the values wrong and (b) how to fix them.
The second warning apparently refers to this line, found exactly as shown here in both server and client configuration files:
;comp-lzo
So what's up and how do I fix it?
Oh, I am certain that the server has loaded the current config, because I changed the log level to
verb 6 and that shows in the log (along with the warnings).
