1.01 build88 - verification of the message MAC failed

Hi,
i am currently using an iPad1 with IOS5 and therefor the last published/downloadable openVPN Connect client is 1.01 build88 in the app store.

I am trying to connect to a openVPN 2.3.1 server and get the following error message:

Client exeption in transport_recv_excode: PolarSSL: SSL read error : SSL - Verification of the message MAC failed

How can i fix this?
the current openVPN connect client on a modern iPhone does work, but on the old iPad unfortunately it doesn't :(
is there someway i can circumvent this? or can i install a custom build of the client somehow?

What is actually the issue? can i find a workaround with different settings?
