In what sense openvpn *doesn't* run like every other service? I have openvpn set up and running here on my laptop. The client is basically always active and retries periodically to reconnect to the remote server until success (laptop might not always have a connection to the Internet). I never hibernate the machine, but suspending to RAM and back is completely transparent, openvpn stays active all the time. I'm on F16 here, but there should be no difference to F17 AFAIK, since both use systemd. All I did to set up openvpn with systemd was to follow instructions on the Fedora wiki: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Openvpn#Working_with_systemd What exactly is the problem in your case?
