Openvpn - Automatic reconnect of tunnel after system wakeup from standby

Ask Fedora
1

Hi,

i am searching for a well integrated way to automatically recover an Openvpn tunnel after PC returns from standby. An SMB mount is going through this Openvpn tunnel and at the moment I always need to issue the following command manually:

sudo systemctl restart openvpn-client@openvpn.hidrive.strato.com-myloginname

So i am looking for some Openvpn settings or systemd configurations.

The SMB mount is automated and configured via systemd:

# ls -l /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/ | grep hidrive
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 52 21. Jul 18:43 mnt-hidrive.myloginname.automount -> /etc/systemd/system/mnt-hidrive.myloginname.automount
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 47 21. Jul 16:13 openvpn-client@openvpn.hidrive.strato.com-myloginname.service -> /usr/lib/systemd/system/openvpn-client@.service

# ls -l /etc/systemd/system | grep hidrive
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root  132  5. Aug 10:03 mnt-hidrive.myloginname.automount
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root  322  5. Aug 10:03 mnt-hidrive.myloginname.mount
