I've been trying to move my mother's firewall (itpables)/OpenVPN install
to pfSense and am having issues finding documentation on proper setup.

The current way I have it configured is a point-to-point VPN using TUN,
my home OpenVPN instance is the server.

What I've currently done in pfSense:

I've gone into Cert Manager (CA) and imported my VPN's CA cert (Labeled
master-ca.crt)

I've gone into Cert Manager (Certificates) and imported my mother's
Certificate Data (Labled as mother.server.crt) and Private Key Data
(Labeled as mother.server.key)

This is the part where I'm getting stuck.  If I select client, the
output of /var/etc/client1.conf is no where near the below original
openvpn config.

If I select server, it's expecting to be the vpn host.

Can somebody point me to documentation that fits my situation? 

Original config below:

dev tun0

# 192.168.4.1 is our local VPN endpoint (mother).
# 192.168.145.14 is our remote VPN endpoint (home).
ifconfig 192.168.4.1 192.168.145.14

# Our up script will establish routes
# once the VPN is alive.

script-security 2

up ./routes.up

## Doug's Server
remote my.server.ip.address

# Our pre-shared static key

tls-auth certs/static.key 1

## Server or Client
tls-client

## Public Certificate Authority
ca certs/master-ca.crt

## VPN Server's Public Certificate
cert certs/mother.server.crt

## VPN Server's Private Key
key certs/private/mother.server.key

# OpenVPN uses UDP port 1194 by default.
# Each OpenVPN tunnel must use
# a different port number.
# lport or rport can be used
# to denote different ports
# for local and remote.
port the.port.i.use

# Downgrade UID and GID to
# "nobody" after initialization
# for extra security.

chroot /etc/openvpn
user nobody
group nogroup

# If you built OpenVPN with
# LZO compression, uncomment
# out the following line.
comp-lzo

## Restart control
ping 10
ping-restart 45
ping-timer-rem
persist-tun
persist-key

# Verbosity level.
# 0 -- quiet except for fatal errors.
# 1 -- mostly quiet.
# 5 -- medium output, good for normal operation.
# 8 -- verbose, good for troubleshooting

Thanks for looking,

Doug
