Hello, I configured OpenVPN to use the username and password for authentication, but I need to have the "ca.crt", "cert server.crt", "server.key" and "dh.pem" certificates. So, what's the advantage of using this authentication method when I still need to use these keys?
Umh, not having to roll out certificates¹ to the *clients* (assuming that your list is indeed complete)?
I would guess that you *could* do away with those files as well ... if you're willing to run the VPN *unencrypted* as well. User+pass does not provide for encryption keys.
¹ And I mean *certificates*, half of what you list aren't. Kind regards, -- Jochen Bern Systemingenieur Binect GmbH
