Yet in my case running either '/etc/init.d/openvpn stop' or simply > '/bin/systemctl stop openvpn.service' brings up the KWallet dialog.
Are you running that command as your (unpriviledged, but logged in locally) user? Or as root? If the right answer is the former, the one asking for your password is systemd. With something like this: $ systemctl restart openvpn ==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.freedesktop.systemd1.manage-units === Authentication is required to restart 'openvpn.service'. If that's the case, OpenVPN has nothing to do with it. You may want to run that with sudo (in order to avoid password prompts).
