Starting Clients at Linux boot time

Post by Bikerznet » Wed Sep 26, 2012 5:07 pm

Hi Have have set up my openvps server and three clients they can all work OK.

When I start a client it asks for the PEM pass phrase which I have to enter so that it will start.

My question is how do I remove the need to enter the PEM pass phrase? The problem being that if I try to start the client at boot time it hangs waiting for the pass phrase!

I would obviously like to be able to set the clients to start if my server reboots without the need to manually start the openvpn client.

Anyone help?
