OpenVPN's site provides fine documentation: http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation.html http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/miscellaneous/78-static-key-mini-howto.html Regards, -- -Chuck _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" I'm working through the docs you referenced in the HOWTO and it says: Next, initialize the PKI. On Linux/BSD/Unix: . ./vars >./clean-all >./build-ca the vars file is not executable and from what I see in the Makefile they want to chmod it to 644....I tried /bin/sh ./vars and it seemed to work but then when I run ./clean-all which is executable I get Please source the vars script first (i.e. ". ./vars") Make sure you have edited it to reflect your configuration. I'm stumped as this appears to be something Linux will handle but not FreeBSD....any suggestions?help
