[Openvpn-announce] OpenVPN 2.7.4 released

[Frank L. <fr...@li...>]

The OpenVPN community project team is proud to release OpenVPN 2.7.4.
This is a small bugfix release.

Bugfixes:

* using --dns server ... style configs on Windows with win-dco would lead to 
  erroneously enabling "DnsSecValidationRequired : True", possibly breaking VPN DNS 
  resolution. Pushing --dns server ... dnssec no can be used as a workaround until 
  clients can be updated. (Github: openvpn#1024)
* correct comments in the --dns-up-down platform scripts relating to 
  dns_server_..._dnssec values.
* fix release-only build of pkcs11-helper vcpkg port, do not try to install files 
  from debug build.
* mbedTLS builds will now provide a proper error message if a tls-group statement 
  with no valid groups is encountered (used to run into SSL handshake failure later 
  on).
* --enable-strict and --enable-strict-options configure flags have been removed 
  (because they did not actually do anything anymore)
