Hello,
I am using an OPENVPN server under WINDOWS in version 2.4.3.
I created clients with password: build-key-pass Client.
Can you give me the procedure for changing passwords?
Thank you for your help

If you upgrade your server to version 2.5, you get Easy-RSA version 3, which has:
Code: Select all
set-rsa-pass <filename_base> [ cmd-opts ]
set-ec-pass <filename_base> [ cmd-opts ]
to change your passwords ..
You don't even need to upgrade your Openvpn server, you can download Easy-RSA3 from here:
https://github.com/OpenVPN/easy-rsa
And if you feel really adventurous then you could even try this:

Or, you can try to decipher this command:
Code: Select all
easyrsa_openssl "$key_type" -in "$file" -out "$out_key_tmp" $crypto ${EASYRSA_PASSIN:+-passin "$EASYRSA_PASSIN"} ${EASYRSA_PASSOUT:+-passout "$EASYRSA_PASSOUT"}
