tiwas Is it possible to have openvpn cliet connect upon logging into a computer? I tried searching, but couldn't find anything about it.
blackexpresso Hi, You can use openvpn as service, it connect automatically. Just to set the service to run auto and to edit the ovpn with a pass and key, file.

tiwas I might be really thivk, but... I have a config file which is working fine when started manually. If I start the windows service I get the following: Thu Dec 20 01:37:07 2018 Initialization Sequence Completed With Errors ( see http://openvpn.net/faq.html#dhcpclientserv ) Any tips?
blackexpresso Hi, for remember, enable auto windows openvpn service isn't suffisant . because, in ovpn file there is an option auth-user-pass. it says to the app, the user want to set him itself into the gui. For authentification without gui, you need to edit ovpn file (for remember) with a user.auth option and add a user.auth file with credential in the conf folder. The user.auth file shoud include your id and pass each one on a line.
blackexpresso if it can help...other way very interesting https://www.ovpn.com/en/blog/windows-run-openvpn-automatically-on-computer-startup/
