This is just as expected. Having --daemon in the config should not cause any failure. It should just drop trying to daemonize if it is detected that OpenVPN is started via systemd. Look at init.c:930, possibly_become_daemon() If sd_notify() returns a value > 0, then OpenVPN is started via systemctl - as sd_notify() have a communication channel with the service manager, and it will not try to daemonize. If sd_notify() returns 0, it means it don't know how to communicate with the service manager. And < 0, it means something bad happened. In both these cases, openvpn will daemonize as if it was not managed by systemd at all. So your test showed that this worked just as expected :) -- kind regards, David Sommerseth OpenVPN Technologies, Inc
