      We are moving to new hardware. We were having some issues with the previous setup and so to rule out any issues, we started clean. However, now that we have the box working and the previous issue solved, we would like to transfer over the OpenVPN servers and configurations. Is there any easy way to transfer users and certificates from our old install to the new one?

        We ended up doing a full backup of the old box and then restored on the new one. Worked like a charm.

          Users and certificates are stored in the config.xml file. So if the hardware was the only issue to change you only had to copy the config.
