Thank you very much for implementing this feature! That's exactly what I had in mind when I sent my request to the list. > It has undergone very limited testing, so may still have some wrinkles --- > options processing in OpenVPN is not something I fully understand.

Feedback most welcome. > I suggest to split the "option string" in two separate parts: Usage: --pull-filter accept|reject "option string" to Usage: --pull-filter accept|reject "option" "option-filter" where "option" is an exact match (identical string) for the corresponding openvpn option and "option-filter" is a partial match. As you wrote having things like 'Note the space at the end of "route " to not reject "route-gateway"' is error prone. Users might complain about hard-to-explain config errors. Or even worse, one filter may work for openvpn version X and not for version Y because it matches a different scope of openvpn options.
