Note that my previous emails have all been focusing on the server
running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
The situation on the 18.04 server is a bit different, since the OpenVPN
version included in stock Bionic is 2.4.4 -- so you'd actually have to
downgrade the upstream OpenVPN version to switch from your current
package to the Ubuntu package.
That may well be fine for your use case, but obviously it would be a
bigger change than the switch from one 2.4.7 package to a different
2.4.7 package that is under discussion on the server running Ubuntu
20.04.
Anyway, posting the output of "apt-cache policy openvpn" on that server
here would help confirm the exact package versions your system currently
knows about...
