      Unfortunately when I try to enable a VPN I get the following status:
      Client UDP4 down 0 (pending) Service not running? Unable to contact daemon: 0 B / 0 B

      When I look in the log it says the following...
      Options error: Unrecognized option or missing or extra parameter(s) in /var/etc/openvpn/client2.conf:32: remore-cert-tls (2.4.4)

      There is a button to start the service but it gives the error if I try to start it. After reboot, no changes.

      Has anyone seen this before and know what to do?

      I have 2.4.3-RELEASE-p1 on SG3100

        remore-cert-tls

        Did you add any extra options in the advanced config? Maybe mistyped remote as remore?
