Yes, for what it's worth it looks like you probably followed the instructions found at https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/OpenvpnSoftwareRepos#DebianUbuntu:UsingOpenVPNaptrepositories back when you first installed OpenVPN. > Is there a good description on *exactly how* to make openvpn part of apt > updates > again on an Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and an Ubuntu 20.04 LTS server? (There may be a blog post or something out there from someone else who has faced this situation, but it may not be a scenario covered by either OpenVPN or Ubuntu official documentation...) This was covered a bit in the other thread, but I think you have two options at this point: * if you want to switch to using the standard openvpn packages provided by Ubuntu itself (which it seems like would probably be fine for your purposes), then you just need to manually force the installation of the current Ubuntu package (with something along the lines of "apt install openvpn/focal" or "apt install openvpn=2.4.7-1ubuntu2.20.04.4"). Once you switch to a stock-Ubuntu package version, then later package releases will be assigned higher version nubmers and will be automatically upgraded-to in the usual way. * If you want to keep using the OpenVPN-project provided packages, then you will want edit that openvpn-aptrepo.list file to re-enable the line and update the "bionic" name to your current release. With that re-enabled, you should see a new OpenVPN-project package version, which apt will upgrade to from your current version. (But note that if you take this route, you will need to rememeber to repeat the process each time you upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu [since the upgrade process will disable the deb line in the openvpn-aptrepo.list again].)
