I am using a private key with a password

The starting of the program does not enable me to enter the password

How do I enter he management interface and associate the password with the user key file please

add to the configuration and try again.

This what I am using and there is no prompt or screen requesting a password

--management-query-passwords --management-hold

here is the full line ... from VPN Details ..

*Tunnelblick: openvpnstart: /Applications/Tunnelblick.app/Contents/Resources/openvpn --cd /Users/jhamlyn/Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Configurations --daemon --management 127.0.0.1 1337 --config /Users/jhamlyn/Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Configurations/Intz/intz.conf --log /Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Logs/-SUsers-Sjhamlyn-SLibrary-SApplication Support-STunnelblick-SConfigurations-SIntz-Sintz.conf.1_0_0_0_49.1337.openvpn.log --management-query-passwords --management-hold --script-security 2 --up /Applications/Tunnelblick.app/Contents/Resources/client.up.tunnelblick.sh -m -w -d --down /Applications/Tunnelblick.app/Contents/Resources/client.down.tunnelblick.sh -m -w -d --up-restart

When I start the program does not ask for any input...

thank you for your input ...

I just tested it using tunnelblick 3.1.7 + openvpn 2.1.4 and that worked fine - a dialog popped up , asking me to enter the password (and whether it should be saved in the keychain) - perhaps your password is (wrongfully) saved in the keychain?

There's a bug in some versions of Tunnelblick that causes it to fail to complain about a bad username/password under certain circumstances. If you have stored a bad username/password in the Keychain (an option when entering the username/password, Tunnelblick may get the bad username/password from the Keychain, pass it to OpenVPN, and then fail without asking you for a different username/password.
