I should have thought to check this before writing the above but,
indeed, if I copy the User.conf file to VPN_User.conf in
etc/openssl/openssl, the error goes away.

However, this still leaves us with two problems I can see:

1) I assume this is a bug and either the VPN_User option should be
removed or a VPN_User.conf.template added to the source.

2) I know very little about this but I would assume the we also need a
VPN_User.ext file in extfiles? Is it safe to simply copy User.conf and
User.ext to VPN_User.conf and VPN_User.ext or should those files be
different in content?

Thanks - John
