+# shellpki
+
+This script is a wrapper around openssl to manage all the pki stuff
+for openvpn.
+
+# Usage
+
+First create the directory, put the script in it and the openssl
+configuration file. You may certainly need to edit the configuration.
+
+    mkdir -p /etc/openvpn/ssl
+    cp /path/to/shellpki.sh /etc/openvpn/ssl/
+	cp /path/to/openssl.cnf /etc/openvpn/ssl/
+	$EDITOR /etc/openvpn/ssl/openssl.cnf
+
+Then you'll need to initialize the pki.
+
+    cd /etc/openvpn/ssl
+    sh shellpki.sh init
+
+Once it's done, you can create all the certificates you need.
+
+    sh shellpki.sh create
