Kali Linux:; unzip: Cannot create extraction directory?
Trying to run this command:
unzip -q openvpn.zip -d /etc/openvpn
But this error occurs:
checkdir: Cannot create extraction directory: /etc/openvpn
No such File or directory.
I know that the command is correct because it worked on another machine. Any suggestions? Thanks
Am I right in saying that the directory should be created if it does not yet exist or do I need to create it first?

1. Do an ls / 2. When you run anything outside your home directory, make sure you have the right permissions. Are you root or do you use sudo to make directories in /etc?

Try creating the directory first. It sounds to me as if you don't have write permission for the /etc directory. If so, you'll have to use "sudo md /etc/openvpn", assuming you're on the sodoers list.
