How to establish connection before user login on OpenVPN Community

Post by tumbri » Thu Oct 26, 2023 1:35 pm

Hello everyone,

As I did not find a forum for OpenVPN Community Edition, I am posting the issue here.
OpenVPN Community Version: 2.6.010

I am wondering if there is a configuration option to enable automatic vpn connection at startup, meaning before the user logs in.

We have certain customers with HO users where we want to rollout group policies for software installation and other things. A lot of these policies are activated as system startup, but need a vpn connection to our network to establish a connection to the DC

To ensure these policies get applied, we need the vpn connection to be established before user logs in.

Any help is appreciated.
