Re: openvpn.conf file from file.pfx
Sorry, I don't understand the question. Can you tell me what "a file.pfx file" means to you, that I am not aware of?
openvpn --config files (see --config in the manual) are just plain text files.

A PFX file , is a single, password protected certificate archive that contains the entire certificate chain plus the matching private key. Essentially it is everything that any server will need to import a certificate and private key from a single file.openvpn_inc wrote: ↑Wed Jul 07, 2021 8:39 pmSorry, I don't understand the question.

Re: openvpn.conf file from file.pfx
You must initially convert "pfx" to separate files private key w/o password and cert. You can do it by the "openssl" utility
