Hi. FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE-p3 Trying to figure out how to get openvpn setup, ultimately for a small number of traveling client machines (Linux and Windows) all owned by myself, for my own personal use. Is there any (in plain english) "how-to's" out there, that actually work? In particular, in regards to creating a self-signed CA (and the other needed) certificates, working at the command line. I'm falling over with the (undocumented) various user input data fields. For example, it's taken me a full week, to find out that my country code is not UK, or 44, but GB! But there is no guidance as to what the other field values should (or should not) be. Such as region/state etc. Trying to follow the methods on FreeBSD Diary, but all the directory/path's are totally different. Have tried several other (alegedly good) how-to's also, but all diverge from reality in major ways at some point, loosing me in the process. All seem to conflict with the OpenVPN sites instructions too, they can't all be right/wrong, can they? (OVPN's instructions also don't relate to FreeBSD, other than in name.) Help please? (Prety please with spots on?) Reply direct if you feel the need not to congest the list machinery. TIA Dave B.
