Hello.

I have a problem, I lost the easy-rsa with the server certificates. Currently, I have no chance recovery tahat. I have file and CA.crt and user cert and key. Is it possible to recover it?

ca /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/ca.crt # generated keys
cert /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/server.crt
key /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/server.key # keep secret
dh /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/dh1024.pem

Please help

If you have lost your ca.key then start a new PKI from scratch.

old client can connect to new PKI?

If you have lost your ca.key then your PKI is of no further use.

Your current VPN will continue to work but you cannot sign any new certificates.

OK but I don't have server.crt, server.key and dh1024.pem. So if I generate new PKI and config then old user connected to new VPN Server ?

If you make a new PKI with a new server then your client will not be able to connect until the client has a new certificate and copy of the new ca.crt

Every client and server using the same PKI has a copy of the ca.crt
