This wiki fully expands the server side variety of Poor Man's NCP, which means this wiki does not apply *that* term to the server. This wiki only applies the term to mean the client because it is easier to understand. Also, clients which suffer from Poor Man's NCP can be more easily upgraded than an old server. So this wiki fully explains the server side, while encouraging the user to upgrade their client OpenVPN version.
