Help with certificates and private key.

Mark C.

Hello, I am trying to connect to OpenVPN on my Debian laptop. I don't want to set up a server, I just want to connect and use VPN. However I don't know how to fill in 3 categories to make the connection work. What do I put in 'User Certificate', 'CA Certificate', and 'Private Key?' I have attached an image below.

What do I put in 'User Certificate', 'CA Certificate', and 'Private Key?'

Also, I apologize if this is in the wrong area of the forum, I could not find any linux specific sections of the forum.

I can no longer edit or update my post so I am adding another post.

I've attached another image below, if I change the authentication type from 'TLS' to 'Password' it seems more simple. I know that username and password is just...

"vpn" and "vpn"

...but what do I put in 'CA Certificate?'
