Thanks Arne. So that explains it all. It had been implemented for openvpn 2, though, but the codebase seems very different. > IV_PLAT_VER needs to set by the UI, same as IV_GUI_VER.

I traced it down to the parse_extras() function, but I'm having a hard time understanding how that config file parsing takes places. Thanks very much anyway!
