Do you bind your OpenVPN instance to a specific IP address (i.e. by using the "local" configuration option)? Otherwise OpenVPN should start just fine even when only "lo" is configured at this point. I'm not sure we want to fix this globally. As far as I understood depending on "network-online.target" should be avoided if possible, since the point of "external connectivity is available" is not easily determined. You can add this locally by executing $ sudo systemctl add-wants openvpn@.service network-online.target Bernhard
