OpenVPN not connecting

[pkfox]

Hi all I followed this tutorial to setup my ASUS RT-N66U as a VPN server http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/other/security/security-howto/32538-setting-up-and-using-openvpn-on-asus-routers?limitstart=0
but when I try to connect using the exported ovpn file and the OpenVPN client on a Win 7 box I receive this error

also I'm never prompted for a password ( I've used OpenVPN before and it always prompts for a password )

Can't say for certain but I suspect that your exported ovpn file is corrupt.
