[Ach] disabling comp-lzo in OpenVPN config

[L. Aaron Kaplan]

Hi *,

I'd like to suggest disabling comp-lzo in our sample config for openVPN.
(https://github.com/BetterCrypto/Applied-Crypto-Hardening/blob/master/src/configuration/VPNs/OpenVPN/server.conf)

Here is the reason:

And:
https://www.mail-archive.com/openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg16919.html


Any objections?

Best,
a.
