[Openvpn-users] How do I make OpenVPN ask for a password before connecting?

Hi,

As a secondary layer of protection and as a precaution against someone 
accessing a VPN through a stolen laptop (yes I know I can revoke a 
certificate but what happens if the user does not report the theft 
immediately) - how do I set OpenVPN to ask for a password before 
connecting with the certificate. I tried 'build-key-pass' during key 
generation and this did not work (I assume that it will ask for a 
password before the key can be opened for viewing). I am thinking of 
something along the lines of a preshared key???

Thanks
