I read this article: [url]https://openvpn.net/faq/how-do-i-use-a-client-certificate-and-private-key-from-the-android-keychain/ [/url] I refer to the command: [code]openssl pkcs12 -export -in cert -inkey key -certfile ca -name MyClient -out client.p12[/code] part of the command is: [code]-name MyClient[/code] I am wondering if "[i]MyClient[/i]" is part of the command "[i]-name MyClient[/i]", or if "[i]MyClient[/i]" is a variable that must be replaced by an appropriate value. In the article nothing is written about it and the execution of the command, as reported, ends without errors. So I'm inclined to think it's part of the command string. Is that so? If I'm wrong, what should I put in place of "[i]MyClient[/i]" ?

I read this article: https://openvpn.net/faq/how-do-i-use-a-client-certificate-and-private-key-from-the-android-keychain/

I refer to the command:

openssl pkcs12 -export -in cert -inkey key -certfile ca -name MyClient -out client.p12

part of the command is:

-name MyClient

I am wondering if "MyClient" is part of the command "-name MyClient", or if "MyClient" is a variable that must be replaced by an appropriate value.

In the article nothing is written about it and the execution of the command, as reported, ends without errors. So I'm inclined to think it's part of the command string. Is that so?

If I'm wrong, what should I put in place of "MyClient" ?

MyClient can be any name you prefer

You should report this appalling omission to Openvpn Inc.
