Hello, this is a plausible problem. What do you think how this should be solved for debian? I guess normally openvpn should read the config as root and drop the privileges afterwards.
In my concrete case I do not see the option, but it may be a default. My ./multi-user.target.wants/openvpn.service file: ----- # This service is actually a systemd target, # but we are using a service since targets cannot be reloaded. [Unit] Description=OpenVPN service After=network.target [Service] Type=oneshot RemainAfterExit=yes ExecStart=/bin/true ExecReload=/bin/true WorkingDirectory=/etc/openvpn [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ----- with kind regards, Alex
