OpenVPN Support Forum

Hello everybody,

I've searced a long time now for some kinde of batch-script to reconnect a OpenVPN tunnel in order to get a new ip during the reconnection-option on the jDownloader software.
But I couldn't find any useful help for a complete beginner.

As maybe some of you already know, you have several options in the jDownloader Software to make a reconnect, get a new ip and so can load again from the same file hoster without waiting for the additional time.

I'm using OpenVPN with the GUI on a Win7 x64 System. The service is not running automatically, is switched to manual. When I want to connect with a VPN Provider to get some anonymity, I start the GUI and connect via script file.
In the GUI you can click on reconnect and the tunnel will be reestablished. I get a new IP.

But I don't want to do this manually all the time. jDownloader should do it for me.

Has anybody an idea about the commands that performe this reconnect, that can be made in the GUI?
Has anybody experience about OpenVPN and jDownloader?

Thanks!

My powershell script uses the openvpn service. With this script you don't need to use the OpenVPN GUI anymore.
Sometimes, when i used openVPN GUI (latest version), the icon was green but when i checked my ip, it was a normal ip, not one of my VPN (the IP of IPredator starts with "46.") -> So i wrote this script to better control my VPN connexion to ensure that I've got a good IP.
It disables the downloads when there is something wrong.
change IP every 3 hours (default) but you can change in the registry, like described in my blog article.
sorry for my english.

As you might know, the main point of JDownloader reconnection feature is to ... protocol to use is OpenVPN, so try to stick with it whenever you can. ... Creating batch reconnect script to work with any program can be done by
