Good day Guys

With this lock down, and we all having to work from home.

Every now and then my OpenVPN client get its self in a state, where it just says the following.

Fri Apr 17 10:19:41 2020 [UNDEF] Inactivity timeout (--ping-restart), restarting Fri Apr 17 10:19:41 2020 SIGUSR1[soft,ping-restart] received, process restarting

I find I have to kill / control + c (I run it via command line) OpenVPN. And then start again.

I would like to ask, is there an option I can add to the OpenVPN client config, to not only auto restart, but also with a time delay between the restart(s).

I dont have access to the server. So I dont know what the VPN server is doing.

Regards
Brent
