      Hi,

      I am using OpenVPN with my cable provider.  While I dont have a static IP, it keeps the same IP for long periods of time.  I have a DDNS address, how can I use that with OpenVPN?  I am using the export wizard for PC/Android access.

      Is there something in the settings i can use to point to my DDNS vs current IP?

      Thanks,
      Rich

        In the client export utility select "Other" at "Host Name Resolution" and enter your domain name at "Host Name" below, then export the client config.
