lawson23 Trying to setup a OpenVPN server on Raspberry pi but running into a snag with easy-rsa and the instructions. All the instructions online point to running this command: cp -r /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/easy-rsa/2.0 /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa The problem is this fails with: cp: cannot stat â/usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/easy-rsa/2.0â: No such file or directory It is because the easy-rsa folder does not exist in Examples. Any ideas on what I can do to get myself back on track? Thanks for all your support.
lawson23 Traffic not sure how this relates to my issue. The mention is regarding Windows files from what the post states. This is a Linux version debian based raspberry pi. Thanks for the help but please help me in seeing what you are pointing out.
lawson23 Traffic thank you for the help but what I get from that post is that this affects the Windows version. I'm running a debian based linux install. Please help me in seeing what you are pointing out.
lawson23 I don't know what is going on but I can't reply to my post keeps saying needs to be approved but it has been a week. I do not understand traffic the posting you put how it applies to my Linux install of OpenVPN. The forum post says files are missing from the Windows version not Linux. Please elaborate.

flash_uk The same thing happened me when I did my Pi setup. The reason is that when you do the install of openvpn, it doesn't put the files in the directory which the setup guide you are using says. I can't remember now what the actual directory was, so you'll need to browse around a bit on the Pi to find it. I have a faint recollection that the "Examples" directory was not there. On the Pi from a terminal window type cd /usr/share/doc, then type ls and see what directories it shows.
strivester Follow these instructions since the easy-rsa directory is not in the path as show in various directions online: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-an-openvpn-server-on-debian-8
