Do you use network-manager?

If not: you can add lines for OpenVPN to your entries for wired and
wireless networks in /etc/network/interfaces:

iface eth0 inet dhcp
        openvpn <vpnname>


iface wlan0 inet dhcp
        openvpn <vpnname>

Given <vpnname>, OpenVPN will use the config file
/etc/openvpn/<vpnname>.conf.
