I don’t know where to put the changes base on my lack of knowledge of notepad++ Will you show me? AeipLog in to Reply June 1, 2013 at 2:27 am It seems that this is a little outdated. I am getting some errors about finding the easy-rsa file. I don’t think it is included in the newest version: http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/downloads.html susical11Log in to Reply June 17, 2013 at 1:05 pm I can’t even get started! Cmd prompt returning error message after changing directories and executing init-config command. I’m in C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenVPN\easy-rsa but receive this message: ‘init-config’ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. What can I do to resolve this? susical11Log in to Reply June 17, 2013 at 1:06 pm Sorry, using Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit Lil ScribbyLog in to Reply September 18, 2013 at 9:00 pm How do you do this on a mac?
