Overriding a pushed "route" in the client's config throws an error

[Holmes.Sherlock]

I want to override the routes pushed by the server in the client.

Code: Select all

route 192.168.52.0 255.255.255.0
route 192.168.53.0 255.255.255.0
route 192.168.48.0 255.255.240.0
route 192.35.222.0 255.255.255.0
route-nopull

While this works as expected, the following errors appear in the log:

Code: Select all

Options error: option 'dhcp-option' cannot be used in this context ([PUSH-OPTIONS])
Options error: option 'dhcp-option' cannot be used in this context ([PUSH-OPTIONS])
Options error: option 'route' cannot be used in this context ([PUSH-OPTIONS])
Options error: option 'route' cannot be used in this context ([PUSH-OPTIONS])
Options error: option 'route' cannot be used in this context ([PUSH-OPTIONS])
Options error: option 'dhcp-option' cannot be used in this context ([PUSH-OPTIONS])
.
.
.
ERROR: Linux route add command failed: external program exited with error status: 2

What bothers me is, I am not sure where I can safely disregard the errors, or even how I can make those disappear.

Following this https://openvpn.net/faq/overriding-a-pu ... -an-error/, I pushedthe `route-nopull` option down after all the client routes are set. But, that didn't help.

Can anybody please help?

My full client configuration is below.

Don't use --route-nopull ever!


Use --pull-filter, see the manual.
