That's exactly right. You can use a relative path also - if you are in /home/user then : mv Downloads/openvpn-client.ovpn /rw/config/vpn/openvpn-client.ovpn will work. Also ~ is a shortcut for your home directory. mv ~/Downloads/openvpn-client.ovpn /rw/config/vpn/openvpn-client.ovpn . means "the directory Im in" .. means the directory up -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
