Generate the master Certificate Authority
cd easy-rsa/2.0
Once in that directory edit the vars file to suite your needs.
After you're done editing the file run the following to generate a new key:
source vars ./clean-all ./build-ca
Next we need to generate a certificate and a key for the server.
./build-key-server server
You can build a certificate and a key for clients with the following command:
./build-key client1
Generate Diffie Hellman parmaters file with the following command:
./build-dh
