Hello,
When importing .ovpn file it messes up the DH PARAMETERS tag.
The file contains the following:

Code: Select all
But when I view it in Viscosity Preferences -> Advanced. It's like this:

-----BEGIN DH PARAMETERS-----

Hi moleculezz,
DH files are for the server-side only. They should not be used or included client-side.
However Viscosity should be removing it on import, rather than ignoring it (and hence creating a mess in the Adv commands area). Thanks for the report - we'll make sure an embedded DH file gets properly stripped in the next update.
Cheers,
James
