Hi,

why not use the sample certs provided with openvpn ? If you just don't
want to setup your own CA and stuff, they will work fine for you.

Good suggestion, but also remember to add --duplicate-cn else only one client at the same time can be connected.

Hi everybody,
we want to setup a multi client vpn but don't want to bother with the
PKI stuff:
the vpn server is already accessible only through ssh-port- forwarding so
we just need plain vpn.
The single-client single-server configuration works perfectly (even with
no static key...just remote, dev tun and ifconfig) but the multi- client
mode seems to require PKI :(


Is it possible to skip authentication in multi client mode with current
version of openvpn?

Multi client mode requires TLS for initial connection establishment,
however you can turn off encryption/authentication on the forwarded tunnel
packets if security is not important to you:


  cipher none
  auth none
