I read the code again and these two versions use the repository from openvpn.net that provides the latest version of openpvn. This means we can drop all 2.3 paths and the related systemd services. |

changed the title
openvpn package from openvpn.net repository doesn't have `server` and `client` directories
It is included in the new systemd service `openvpn-server@.service`: `ExecStart=/usr/sbin/openvpn --status %t/openvpn-server/status-%i.log --status-version 2 --suppress-timestamps --config %i.conf` The new path is `/run/openvpn-server/status-server.log`

If all distributions are packaged properly now, I agree we should do these changes |

Openvpn 2.4 uses by default two directories
clientandserverto separate the openvpn configuration. We now move to this behavior and patch distros with openvpn 2.3 to use the new path. Only Ubuntu 16.04 and Debian 8 are affected.Fixes #605
@angristan for how long do you want to support 2.3? Nyr dropped support for it.
I know from the issues that it's used on routers but I'm not sure about the security implications.
