* This release only affects the Linux/Unix version of easy-rsa.
The Windows version (written to use the Windows shell) is unchanged.
+* Use the revoke-full script to revoke a certificate, and generate
+ (or update) the crl.pem file in the keys directory (as set by the
+ vars script). Then use "crl-verify crl.pem" in your OpenVPN server
+ config file, so that OpenVPN can reject any connections coming from
+ clients which present a revoked certificate. Usage for the script is:
+
+ revoke-full <common-name>
+
+ Note this this procedure is primarily designed to revoke client
+ certificates. You could theoretically use this method to revoke
+ server certificates as well, but then you would need to propagate
+ the crl.pem file to all clients as well, and have them include
+ "crl-verify crl.pem" in their configuration files.
