Try using the management interface to pass passwords.

Directives of interest in CLIENT-config file:

management ip port pwd_file
management-query-passwords

Then, pass user id and password by raw telnet to managemnt ip:port

Hi folks,

I have enabled on server side (Linux) the auth-user-pass-verify 
"/etc/openvpnsrv/password.sh" via-env.
Everythings works fine, Windows clients they have to put username and 
password by hands, that is
exactly what I want.
But I have a few remote offices which ones are connect permannetly via
linux 
firewalls with OpenVPN.
How to automate that not to put username and password by hands?
What is the format of the file which is use by auth-user-pass on client

side?
Or is it possible to use stdin to pass the username and password?
I have tried a few different options with stdin but it did not work.

For linux clients I can use the same user and password because they
need no 
human interference.

Any ideas guys?


Regards

Remus
