→Updated Client Certificates
== Windows VPN Client ==
We provide a customized, simple to use, client for Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 and 8. (Windows 2000 workaround: see bottom of page)
* The latest version of HDA Connect 3 can be downloaded from: [http://dl.amahi.org/HDAConnect3.exe HDAConnect3 installer].
* Note: If you have installed a previous version, you will want to exit the service from the tray icon (right click).
* On windows XP simply run it. On Vista, run it as Administrator (this is important). In Windows 7, it should ask for administrator automatically. The defaults should work for everyone.
* To install in Windows 8 /10 run it as Administrator. "right click" on the file HDAconnect.exe -> Run as a administrator. (tested on Win 8 64bits)* Once install is complete, you will need to follow the [[VPNWindows#Updated_Client_Certificates|Updated Client Certificates]] guidance or you will not be able to connect to your HDA.

* Click on "Continue Anyway" warning for the driver, if any.

* Windows 2000: HDAConnect3 looks for 'route.exe' in the 'C:\windows\system32' folder. This folder doesn't exist on Windows 2000, where the systemfolder is called 'WINNT'. As a result, the install works, but the connection will not work. As a workaround, create the folder 'C:\windows\system32' and copy 'route.exe' from the 'C:\WINNT\system32' folder into it. after this HDAconnect3 should work on Windows 2000. DISCLAIMER: This hasn't been tested thoroughly, it might or might not work for your particular setup.
where xxx is the same as your OpenVPN config file name,
this will be executed BEFORE the OpenVPN tunnel is closed.
== Updated Client Certificates ==
There are updated client certificates required for HDAConnect. Go to the [[OpenVPN Client Certificates]] to download them.
* Copy new certificates to ''C:\Program Files (x86)\HDAConnect\config'' (overwrite if prompted for ''ca.crt'')
* Update ''HomeHDA.ovpn'' to use the new certificate names:
** Change line 9 from ''homehda.crt'' to ''Amahi-Client-OpenVPN.crt''
** Change line 10 from ''homehda.key'' to ''Amahi-Client-OpenVPN.key''
You should be able to connect to the HDA remotely now with HDAConnect. This is a temporary work around until we can update the HDAConnect3 installer.
