[Resolved] Install EasyRSA for Win 7

Post by trkr81 » Sat Feb 08, 2014 5:13 am

I have successfully installed OpenVPN in the past so I have a general idea how to do it. If someone could point me in the right direction, I would be very grateful.

I see that in 2.3.x the easy-rsa must be downloaded from Git. I downloaded the .zip file from Git but I'm still not sure what to do with it in regards to installing OpenVPN for multiple clients. I followed the guide closely, but its not very clear about what to do with the 'easy-rsa' file once its downloaded. Also, do I need ALL of the files or just the /easy-rsa folder? And if so, where should I put it? I'm running Windows 7.

Thanks so much.

Hi debbie10t,

So, just to be clear, the latest version (2.3.2) does have everything required for easy-rsa, correct? Just so that I'm clear, why does the download area say that easy-rsa is not included and that it should be downloaded from Git?

I must be misunderstanding something simple. :)

Thanks again for your help. I do appreciate it.

Regarding my reply above, does this apply only to those who want the easy-rsa "source" code? Is that what I misunderstood?

So, it's still included in the OpenVPN download file, but if I want the source code, I need to get that from Git, is that right?
