Is there a way to tell OpenVPN to just pick a random .OVPN config file at startup?
Not with openvpn itself but your OS could probably manage this with a script.
Thanks for the reply,
Im using a debian based version of linux (antix) without GUI to run my vpn.
As a novice linux user, where could i learn about the relevant scripting to make this possilbe?
which config file needs editing?
would really love some code i could copy paste.
im sure others could benifit from this too.

is it possible to put ALL US servers in one .OVPN file, and having OpenVPN randomly select a server IP from inside that file?
No, this is not possible. Openvpn allows only one client certificate+key per config.
from my inspection of various OVPN files, the certificate and static key in each file appear to be identical?
the only detail that cahnged is the "remote IP" (port number remains the same also)
Still not possible?
Also, i know about the trick of putting an "Auth.txt" in the .OVPN file to save entering creditials on startup,
however as my VPN provider has +1000 OVPN files, it's unfeasible to enter "Auth.txt" in every file.
Is there a way to give OpenVPN credentials without editing every .OVPN?
thank you
