Adding a new client.
To add a new client, we are going to first create a certificate using easy-rsa.
Our client will be "guest1".
As root:
> cd ~/openvpn-ca
> ./easyrsa gen-req guest1 nopass
> ./easyrsa sign-req client guest1
> cd ~
> ./make-client-config.sh guest1
Now scp from Sam's account and download the new guest1.ovpn for use in OpenVPN client.
