Dear all,

Indeed, the transport method should not impact the file being downloaded.
Today I did the download again using both HTTP and HTTPS: the size & hash are the same no matter the transport method used.
Something went wrong on my previous download (the size was only 185K instead of 485): there is no need to change the install procedure.

I'll continue the tests for OpenVPN 2.4.4 and post results on forum topic.


Best regards,
Horace
