The fingerprint examples in doc/man-sections/example-fingerprint.rst suggest to use openssl x509 -fingerprint -sha256 -in server.crt -noout, which in my tests produces an output with colons just fine.

Our parser tries to err on the side of "being too strict", in general, thus the colons are not optional.

On the formatting of the text message - indeed, this needs to be fixed.

I understand if it is safer to require colons. Ultimately it is the developers' decision. I just wanted to bring it to attention that it can be inconvenient for the user. I agree that most certificate-oriented tools do use colons.

But I also have another suggestion. The following warning is shown even when peer-fingerprint is in use:

WARNING: No server certificate verification method has been enabled.  See http://openvpn.net/howto.html#mitm for more info.

Isn't supplying the fingerprint a verification method in a way?
