Do you have an eToken? You need to put a private key and cert on the
token. This is now described here:

http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html#pkcs11

When I originally prepared my eToken, I created the PKCS12 file with
easy-rsa, initialized the token with pkcs15-init and put the PKCS12 file
on the token with pkcs15-init.

I'm not sure if the hang is also reproducable with a token without
PKCS15 structure on it.

It should also be possible to use Aladdins proprietary PKCS11 provider
under linux, but I never tried that. I can try some other eTokens with
Aladdins file structure and see what happens with opevpn
--show-pkcs11-ids in Ubuntu 10.10 and 11.04. (Openvpn worked for me in
10.10)

Tell me how I can assist in fixing this bug.

Greetings, Michael
