*Hello,*

*thank you so much for explanation.*
*Now documentation is look better, but I still have problems with
configuration of Client Side.*

*I do next on server: *
export GOMAXPROC=1
root@calvin:~/govpn# ./utils/newclient.sh Alice
Place verifier to peers/*2e6cc6e97d496b29d0271f55*/verifier

root@calvin:~/govpn/peers/2e6cc6e97d496b29d0271f55# ls -l
total 12
-rw------- 1 root root  6 May 13 16:22 name
-rwx------ 1 root root 10 May 13 16:22 up.sh
-rw------- 1 root root 65 May 13 16:22 verifier
root@calvin:~/govpn/peers/2e6cc6e97d496b29d0271f55#

*How client should now this? *
*On client I do as written in updated documentation: *
root@farengeit:~/govpn# ./utils/storekey.sh /tmp/passphrase
Enter passphrase:root@farengeit:~/govpn#

root@farengeit:~/govpn# ./govpn-verifier -id *2e6cc6e97d496b29d0271f55 *-key
/tmp/passphrase
panic: ID is not specified

goroutine 1 [running]:
runtime.panic(0x4df940, 0xc21001d420)
        /usr/lib/go/src/pkg/runtime/panic.c:266 +0xb6
main.main()
        /root/govpn/src/govpn/cmd/govpn-verifier/main.go:41 +0x96
root@farengeit:~/govpn# ./govpn-verifier -id 2e6cc6e97d496b29d0271f55 -key
/tmp/passphrase
panic: ID is not specified

goroutine 1 [running]:
runtime.panic(0x4df940, 0xc21001d420)
        /usr/lib/go/src/pkg/runtime/panic.c:266 +0xb6
main.main()
        /root/govpn/src/govpn/cmd/govpn-verifier/main.go:41 +0x96

*2e6cc6e97d496b29d0271f55  - this is the number generated on server.*

*So because of this error, I can't continue with configuration from here.
What I do wrong? *
