I'm running ubuntu 8.04 and openVPN 2.1_rc7.

I'm stuck on running the vars script in the openVPN setup, http://openvpn.net/index.php/documentation/howto.html#pki.

I've run the vars script a number of ways, but it never creates the keys directory.

I've tried,
sudo sh vars
sudo sh ./vars
source vars
source ./vars
sudo /bin/bash ./vars

It seems that the vars script attempts to export environment variables, but when I call env or sudo env I don't see them.

If I try to execute the next install script, sudo sh clean-all, it tells me "Please source the vars script first (i.e. "source ./vars")".

I know it's something simple, but I can't figure it out right now.
