openVPN generated incorrect certs generated, key too small
OpenVPN profiles, especially certs are too small, which causing unable to establish connection from modern Linux operating systems, like RHEL9 or Fedora 39.
Error is specifically:
OpenSSL: error:0A00018F:SSL routines::ee key too small:
So, is there a way, to customize the size of pem key during generating, or any settings which could be set in .openvpn file?

@pepicheck The second option DID NOT WORK!! Only the first option worked.
I added the tls-cipher TLS-DHE-RSA-WITH-AES-128-CBC-SHA to the generated .ovpn file (above and after cipher AES-128-CBC) and then importing to settings but it did not work
client
dev tun
auth-nocache
proto udp
float
nobind
cipher AES-128-CBC
tls-cipher TLS-DHE-RSA-WITH-AES-128-CBC-SHA
