Greetings!

I'm having some problems setting up OpenVPN on WRT3200ACM using latest version (r50057) of DD-WRT.
I followed guide form this site (https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1157344) to create certificates and setup openVPN.
However I'm having problem with setting up these certificates. It works fine if I strictly follow the guide and use argument "nopass". But when I use password to lock them, OVPN doesn't even boot.
It seems like I'm missing providing password of some certificate somewhere but I have no idea where to add it and how (in "additional cofniguration"?).

Thanks in advance

OpenVPN does not run in interactive mode on the router, so you cannot use keys which are password protected on the router.
