[SOLVED] embed into ovpn client file

Hi, I'd like to inline embed the ca.crt's data into the client.conf file like this:

cat base.conf 
<(echo -e '<ca>') ~/client-configs/keys/ca.crt <(echo -e '</ca>') 
<(echo -e '<cert>') ~/client-configs/keys/client1.crt <(echo -e '</cert>n')
<(echo -e '<key>') ~/client-configs/keys/client1.key <(echo -e '</key>n')
<(echo -e '<tls-auth>') ~/etc/openvpn/ta.key <(echo -e '</tls-auth>') >> client1.ovpn

But I got this error:

bash: /dev/fd/63: Permission denied

I did it as root. Obviously there us something going on wrong the way I try to embed in. Do you know how to do it properly?

It should be in one line. Or use line continuation character at end of each line, it is backslash in Bash (\).

This was the solution, thanks though

#!/bin/bash

f=$1

cat base.conf > client"$1".ovpn

echo <ca> >> client"$1".ovpn
cat ~/client-configs/keys/ca.crt >> client"$1".ovpn
echo </ca> >> client"$1".ovpn

etc...
