These changes looks reasonable. Acked-By: David Sommerseth <davids@openvpn.net> -- kind regards, David Sommerseth OpenVPN Inc
Basic client test works, quick glance looks reasonable.
Your patch has been applied to the master branch.

With cipher validation performed in cipher_get(), a cipher is never returned in any case if some check fails. This prevents OpenVPN from operating on all ciphers provided by the SSL library, like printing them to the user. Move the validation logic to cipher_valid() so that checks are performed only when OpenVPN really want to know if a cipher is usable or not.
