If I have OpenVPN 2.4.4 deployed on my server, will it be able to connect to the client version 2.3.18?

No.

Server does not connect to client.

The versions can be mixed but there may be some issues .. hard to say.

2.3.18 shoud be able to connect to 2.4.4 .... if it doesn't then check your log files.

FTR: Openvpn 2.3.x is no longer officially supported ..

YMMV.

The issue was resolved by installing from the standard repositories of version 2.1.3.

What version of openvpn do I need to install on the server so that a client with version 2.1.3 can connect?

version 2.1.3 is even older, so you take your chances.
