I was talking about this behavior change with Antonio, and we were thinking about adding an optional `dco` arg to `--mktun` so current users don’t see any change at all. New users could explicitly ask for a DCO iface. OTOH this would’ve been a nice excuse to push more people toward DCO :) WDYT?

On your tun‑mode question: yes, https://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/1734 probes the pre‑existing DCO iface and checks its mode. In fact, 1734 is a dependency for this patch.
