I have a mix of Windows (openvpn 2.3 and 2.4)
and Mac (openvpn 2.3 only, I wonder why TunnelBlick shuns 2.4?) clients
out in the field.

So you say, I can simply 

push "compress lz4"

to all client (?) and then

a) either the client will accept and use lz4 (2.4 I guess)
b) or the client will fail, ignore the push and use lzo instead?

How do I use that?
