Thanks but I am quite capable of building openvpn ..

I am trying to determine how to use these files:
openvpn-build/generic/image-native/*.bin.tar.bz2
or, if indeed, they have any valid use ..

I am not expecting any "out of scope" help.

Any straight answer to my straight question would be appreciated.

Regards
