I think 799 is leading you astray. Don't make the changes in the template. bind-dirs is intended to work in the AppVM, (as I think you originally tried). You need to configure bind-dirs and restart the qube, *then* make any changes that you want to make in /etc/openvpn. You can check that the changes are there in /rw/bind-dirs/etc/openvpn. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
