      Since all of pfsense is stored in XML, I've been having a bit of trouble finding a config file for anything.  I'm looking to see where (or if) the *.ovpn file is stored on my server.  I'd like to hook up an Untangle box to pfsense for site to site, but I cannot find a file to upload to the Untangle server.  Do I just need to create one by hand?

      Thanks,

      b

        @http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic:

        The config files for the OpenVPN servers and clients are saved in the path /var/etc/

        The config files are built out of the config.xml
        The xml file wouldnt help you build a config for another machine.

            Download the one from the pfSense and edit it?

              So we're back to my original question:  Where can I find this file?  The GUI has no option to save the file and I've looked everywhere I can think of on the pfsense server (using WinSCP) and haven't found it yet.

                  Jeez…you would have thought I'd look there.  Thanks for the tip.  I'll report back later to see where we get with this.
