I found that openvpn management interface works as I'd like it. Add the following lines to client.ovpn -------------------------------- management localhost 1000 management-query-passwords auth-retry interact management-hold -------------------------------- and start the service. Use putty to connect to localhost port 1000, format RAW |>INFO:OpenVPN Management Interface Version 1 -- type 'help' for more info |>HOLD:Waiting for hold release |hold release |SUCCESS: hold release succeeded |>PASSWORD:Need 'Auth' username/password |username Auth here_comes_my_username |SUCCESS: 'Auth' username entered, but not yet verified |password Auth here_comes_my_mypassword |SUCCESS: 'Auth' password entered, but not yet verified et voila openvpn connects. I'd like to cry, how long did this works? I found this in changelog: 2004.11.28 -- Version 2.0-beta18 * Added management interface. See new --management-* options or the full management interface documentation in management/management-notes.txt in the tarball. greetings Carsten
