Password-protected clients are not supported by the headless installation method since user input is expected by Easy-RSA.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Headless User Addition
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
It's also possible to automate the addition of a new user. Here, the key is to provide the (string) value of the `MENU_OPTION` variable along with the remaining mandatory variables before invoking the script.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The following Bash script adds a new user `foo` to an existing OpenVPN configuration
 | 
			
		||||
```bash
 | 
			
		||||
#!/bin/bash
 | 
			
		||||
export MENU_OPTION="1"
 | 
			
		||||
export CLIENT="foo"
 | 
			
		||||
export PASS="1"
 | 
			
		||||
./openvpn-install.sh
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Features
