Re: fstab error? or something else?

Thanks for your reply. FWIW I found out the error was something else.
The filetype of the partition was vfat. Because I inited it on my Mac Pro desktop. Silly me.

Re: RPi2 + Raspbian + openVPN SOLVED serve + missing Easy-RS

Plausible. But there are at least 2 other tutorials that state the same thing. This is one of the eternal problems with documentation - it is almost always post-factum and done as a volunteer effort. Actually the relevant tutorials themselves, as far as I have read them, are pretty good. I note ther...

Re: RPi2 + Raspbian + openVPN serve + missing Easy-RSA SOLVE

However this command does work as per Lawson's helpful post.
root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# cp -R /usr/share/easy-rsa /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa

So thanks to all who replied and hopefully this will document where the dirs now live.

RPi2 + Raspbian + openVPN serve + missing Easy-RSA

I am working through installing openVPN server on my RPi2 and am stuck. There are several good tutorials and I've been following the steps in this one: <http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-33548728>.

Re: ssh from RPi2 to OS X Yosemite times out on port 22

Thanks for your comment. 1) What version of OS X are you running? 2) The only other computer on my LAN is a G4 Mac running Leopard 10.5.8. Interestingly I am able to ssh from the Mac Pro to the Leopard machine but not vice versa. I get the same timeout message on the G4 as on the RPi2. Which tends t...
