Re: [Openvpn-users] /etc/init.d/openvpn does not work, manual is OK
David,
your /etc/init.d/openvpn.sh should start the server using the --config
option to tell the server which config file to use. Maybe it is not
reading the correct config information.
2nd: The S(tart) and K(ill) scripts will be run in the numerical order.
So it could be the problem that you maybe try to start openvpn service
before all your depending services (networking and so on) are correctly
started. You can check if that is the reason by giving the S/K script
the highest number of all scripts used in the directory you are using.
Hope this helps.
Stefan
