Hi guys,

I've got an OpenVPN server that most of our sales force uses to tie into our network. This particular server was intended more as a test server though (only has one IDE HD in it)

I've got a Dell PowerEdge that I was planning on swapping in for it once its built. My question is:

Are the keys I generated with OpenSSL transferable to the new server or will I need to generate a new set of keys for each user once I move the service over?

When generating the keys, I see the following at the end:

Write out database with 1 new entries
Data Base Updated


Do I need to port this database over as well? If so, does anyone know where it resides?
