Re: [Openvpn-users] Help with OpenVPN & DD-WRT

["Preston Edwards" <preston.edwards@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Erich--

 

Thanks for your reply. I agree totally that the error is very obvious and says it all, but I can't seem to figure out why it's telling me this. I created the certificates using the utility included in OpenVPN (I guess it uses OpenSSL), and supposedly, it's valid until 2016. How can I determine when it begins to be valid?

 

Thanks,

Preston

That would explain it all wouldn't it?

What is the validity date/time of your certificate?


cheers
