Open VPN - need some help install/configuring.

So I installed Open VPN on my server (Cent OS) and I installed openvpn
on my desktop (WinXP) and I am trying to connect them. I generated all
of my key files and certs on my server and copied the client key, cert,
and server ca.crt to my client,  I believe I have everything configured
correctly, but it does not connect.  Also on the windows side it
indicates my tun adaptor is not connected.  Perhaps one of you can tell
me where I went wrong.

And yes, I did try shut down my windows firewall and my server iptables

	Flushing firewall rules:                                   [  OK
]
	Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter                    [  OK
]
	Unloading iptables modules:                                [  OK
]

Here is what I see from my client (windows)
