Hello, All!

Man page https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/Openvpn24ManPage
is not complete.

I found three bugs:

1) Options udp4 udp6 are not documented for directive "proto".

2) Options tcp4-client tcp4-server tcp6-client tcp6-server
are not documented for directive "proto".

3) Options tcp4-client tcp4-server tcp6-client tcp6-server
are not documented for option "proto" of directive "remote".

=============================================================

What I need to do for fixing this bugs in the OpenVPN man page?

This message in OpenVPN users mailing list is enough,
or I need to create bug report via bug tracker at
https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/report ?

English is not my native language, sorry, so I can't provide
reliable patch for fixing these bugs on the OpenVPN man page.

P.S.

Also "openvpn --help" command for 2.4.6 version does not provide
help about udp4 udp6 tcp4-client tcp4-server tcp6-client tcp6-server
options:

--proto p       : Use protocol p for communicating with peer.
                  p = udp (default), tcp-server, or tcp-client

P.P.S.

Also wiki page
https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/GettingStartedwithOVPN
in section #Settinguptheconnection provide wrong information:

It is also possible to connect using IPv6. In the current 2.3 releases, you will need to replace --udp, --tcp-client or --tcp-server with --udp6, --tcp6-client or --tcp6-server. From the OpenVPN 2.4, OpenVPN will use IPv6 and IPv4 when just using udp/tcp-client/tcp-server. To enforce only IPv4, you need to use --udp4, --tcp4-client or --tcp4-server; and similar for IPv6 with udp6/tcp6-client/tcp6-server.

This is not true, such command line options does not exists in OpenVPN.
For example,

# openvpn --tcp4-client
Options error: Unrecognized option or missing or extra parameter(s) in [CMD-LINE]:1: tcp4-client (2.4.6)
