Options error: Parameter tls_timeout can only be specified in TLS-mode, i.e. 
where --tls-server or --tls-client is also specified.

I'm just using pre-shared secret. My configuration:
openvpn --dev tap0 --remote x.y.z.w --ifconfig-nowarn --port nnnn --secret 
/path/to/secret

I'm looking for a UDP "equivalent" of --connect-retry n.
