If this is the problem you want to solve I have to say I think you're doing it the wrong way. There are components in your system which *will* know when your address is reconfigured. Please just configure them to reconfigure OpenVPN. This would seem to be a good use for the management interface in OpenVPN. I like to use udhcpd for systems like this. It is fast and no-nonsense. It runs a script that you have to write. It makes no sense trying to work around the requirement of knowing your configuration. That is always neccessary, unless you are prepared to listen on 0.0.0.0, which I would guess already works without special OpenVPN options or code. //Peter
