Description

I try to configure OpenVPN client on a Windows 10 computer.
When I use the cmd file "Build-key" (Build-key- Client1), the file "Client1.crt" is empty (0 byte)
So impossible to use OpenVPN on client side
Thanks a lot in advance

Have you set up the CA first?

Anyway, I do not know anything about generating keys on windows, so handing this over to tincantech who does :-)

Best thing to do here is:

  • Install Openvpn-2.5 and select Easy-RSA version 3 from the custom options.
  • Use Easy-RSA version 3 to build your certificates.
