rutledj We has a customer install OpenVPN client v. 2.5.1 on his server. We then placed our config files on his computer and set the service to automatically start. Problem is, the client will not connect unless you launch the GUI. Is this a recent change? In the past, we just started the service and it connected immediately. Now the GUI has to be running. And if you lose connection, even with the service still running, the GUI has to be restarted before it will connect. Thanks, Rut
