    159 As of OpenSSL v1.1, the nsCertType extension in X.509 certificates are no longer supported.  This extension is old and have been deprecated for a long time.  The replacement option, `---remote-cert-tls` is a macro which sets the `--remote-cert-ku` and `--remote-cert-eku` to appropriate values, depending on it is wanted to check if the remote provided certificate is a server or client certificate.  As the extended key usage extension is far more commonly used today, this is effectively the equivalent of `--ns-cert-type`.  For the time being, if `--ns-cert-type` is used in OpenVPN v2.5 or later, it will currently be re-mapped to `--remote-cert-tls` and complain about a deprecated option being used.
