Was just wondering if there's any way to use a key token with OpenVPN? I was googling it but all I'd find is USB tokens which I don't want. I'm referring to the ones that you press a button on the little dongle and it shows a 6 digit code that you have to type in with your password to authenticate to the server? Is there any way to do that that's not super complex?

there's no built-in support in OpenVPN for this but it's possible to do this using a 'auth-user-pass' script on both client and server side. On the client side you'd generate a password with the usb token (e.g. yubikey) and on the server side you'd process this using a 'auth-user-pass-verify' script. See the manual page for details on this.
I'd recommend playing with an 'auth-user-pass-verify' script using a plain password file first, before attempting to use usb key tokens.
