Hi, please can someone help me before I have a mental breakown. When i edit the file nano /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/Default.txt i keep getting the message /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/Default.txt: Permission denied. In the file i'm entering
client

nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
mute-replay-warnings
ns-cert-type server
key-direction 1
cipher AES-128-CBC

Don't do that !

Edit your config file:

nano /etc/openvpn/client.conf
