remove the user about ansible-role-openvpn HOT 6 CLOSED

Remove the user?

As in remove the openvpn user from the server, or revoke a generated certificate?

I took a closer look at this - it's technically possible to revoke a generated cert, but I don't have support for it in the playbook right now.

I don't have enough bandwidth to allow me to get to adding such support right now either, so this will have to go on the backlog.

I started to write a PR against this role for this specific issue but instead decided to write a separate role to also implement a different approach for OpenVPN configuration which I think offers more flexibility. FWIW, the specific cert revocation work in this issue is mostly encapsulated in logan2211/ansible-openvpn@6996249 and could probably be adapted to work in this role without too much difficulty.

Instead of using openssl x509 to sign certificates, you build an openssl CA repository and use the openssl ca tool to manage the repo (sign certs, revoke certs, etc.)

This is stale, I'm closing it to clean up this repo.

Reopen it if you want, thanks.
