OpenVPN error=certificate has expired: CN=opengw.net

[ishan_D]

I am not able to connect with any of VPN Gate VPN using openvpn client. Looking at the logs and bit of search it looks like server openvpn certificates have expired.

Following are the logs:

Any idea how to fix this? or where should we report this to get the servers fixed?
