OpenVPN Command Line Arguments

RHLinux

Hello All,

Is it possible to pass command line arguments to the openVPN daemon? I need to pass some specific command line arguments to openVPN. I have tried through SSH to modify the startup scripts in /etc/rc.d/openvpn but couldn't get them to work.

Use the Custom options in Advanced Configuration:

FreeBSD doesn't start daemon like "Linux" based OS's ....
pfSense isn't even following pure "FreeBSD" conventions.
To finalize : editing core file will probably get wiped (re written) when saving config, and for sure when upgrading.

If you really have to, look here :
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/openvpn

Thanks for the information, I'm used to Fedora, Debian/Ubuntu Linux distros :)... It's purely for testing, I realize they will be overwritten during upgrades, but they shouldn't be overwritten by config changes.
