IMPORTANT NOTE FOR WINDOWS VISTA/7 USERS

Note that on Windows Vista, you will need to run the OpenVPN

You can do this by right-clicking on the OpenVPN GUI
desktop icon, and selecting "Run as administrator".

my config file is ok and name of it exactly name my accout that but it from a openvpn acout seller.please help.
thaks and waying.

is this the 64bit version of Windows 7? in that case the config file should be copied over to also, which tool are you using to copy over files? non-win7 aware tools can cause the file to end up in a virtual store. Unfortunately, the PuTTY SSH client is such a non-win7 aware tool.
