huumm...............ok.

I've checked the expiration time for each certificate, it's diffrent.
But all my certificates are generated with the same openssl.cnf.

So i did

openssl req -nodes -new -x509 -keyout my.key -out my.crt -days 10000
and my.crt is valid until 2031 :o)

u'r right about the diffrent expiration date with --cert and --ca(x509). thinks for those informations.

Check out the "easy-rsa" mini-package in the OpenVPN distro. It has scripts
which set long expiration times.

Also make sure you understand that both the host certificate (--cert) and the
root certificate (--ca) have their own individual expiration times.
