If I am not mistaken, OpenVPN does not automatically fetch the new CRL, and 
must be told specifically to do CRL verification.

So, if your CA is not on the OpenVPN machine (which would be a VERY good 
thing :), you have to make sure that the CRL gets replicated from the CA out 
to the machine, and put in the location specified by the crl-verify option.

As a note: This is an OpenVPN configuration question, not an OpenSSL 
question - you probably will get better support asking on the OpenVPN mailing 
list.

Have fun.
