Access Server and OpenVPN Connect client are commercial offerings based
on the OpenVPN 2.1.x tree. As such, they lack many of the features that
came in later community versions (2.2.x+). I'd guess they don't support
UTF-8, either.

I would use OpenVPN 2.3-alpha1 as it should be very stable and has most
of the latest features. You can use the with Access Server, too.
