if you go to openvpn web-site, there is a quick start guide, only 2 pages.
It will show you how to connect two computers.
However, you still need to generate the key files.

There is a Windows Machine on the other side and I do not actually what program makes the server. I'm not good in this question, so may be I need to use some other protocol or tool to establish connection, because I can't get certification from the server. Or may be I can generate some fake certificate? I just have user and password and need to get in into VPN. Could you please tell me the best way to do this?
