The easy-rsa directory installed by the windows installer comes with the
old easy-rsa 1.0 files. (even current openvpn-2.1_rc2-install.exe) This bug is not that critical, but it is annoying that easy-rsa still creates server certificates without extended key usage per default (openssl.cnf), making the windows user wonder about error messages if the recommended "remote-cert-tls" option is used. (In this case simply copying the openssl.cnf from the 2.0 directory did the job, for regular usage the path to opensc in the newly added pkcs11 section should be changed). And if possible please add the following three files to the "Windows" directory if easy-rsa. They allow to build password protected versions of the keys (I just copied the files and remove the "-nodes" parameter). Except of build-key-server-pass.bat i think that they are vital for security (e.g. the key files are in an unencrypted directory and physical access is possible). -- Daniel Zauft git-svn-id: http://svn.openvpn.net/projects/openvpn/branches/BETA21/openvpn@1862 e7ae566f-a301-0410-adde-c780ea21d3b5
