Point taken, However, If a how to needs steps changing with users own
variables or need steps repeating multiple times depending on a users
requirements its useful to know what and how.

For example if I want to set up N VPN clients I need N client Keys, so
I need to know how to create these N clients, Words like repeat step 4
for each client help, I guess......

Also if I have one client that needs to be able to connect to multiple
servers is there a way to use the same client key, or is the user
going to need one key per a server, (Multiple site, which in my case
I'm not doing....)

Howto's often easily transfer to some kind on flowchart....
