Hi there, The --tls-remote was removed in OpenVPN 2.4, and was already marked as DEPRECATED in OpenVPN 2.3. From OpenVPN 2.3's manpage: Please also note: This option is now deprecated. It will be removed either in OpenVPN v2.4 or v2.5. So please make sure you support the new X.509 name formatting described with the --compat-names option as soon as possible by updating your configurations to use --verify-x509-name instead. IMHO this should have been fixed in network-manager-openvpn before 2.4 arrived.
