Certificates for OpenVPN

If you want to create certificates for OpenVPN you have to set two additional options in section usr_cert in /etc/pki/tls/openssl.cnf file:

nsCertType = server | client
keyUsage = digitalSignature

of course nsCertType have to be server when you generate certificate for OpenVPN server and client for client certificates.

This options are required when you OpenVPN options ns-cert-type and remote-cert-tls.
