Change Password for a certificate

Post by NanoSC88 » Mon Feb 26, 2018 5:43 pm

Hi everyone!!

I am new configuring a OpenVPN.

I have already configured a OpenVPN server and now I can create some users with their password. Using this procedure:

cd ~/openvpn-ca
source vars
./build-key-pass test.certificate
cd ~/client-configs
./make_config.sh test.certificate

With these lines I have my own test.certificate.ovpn.

Using this certificate, I can connect to my network without any problem.

Now, I am trying to change the password of a certificate using this line, but it doesn´t work.

openssl rsa -in test.certificate.key -out test.certificate.key -des3

The user can connect to the vpn without any problem.

How can i do?

Thank you in advance!!
