DONT restart openvpn server after changing settings
-
Hi,
we want to avoid automaticly restart openvpn server on our pfsense machine when we change some settings (like "push route ...." in Custom options).
We want to schedule a restart of the openvpnserver during night. Thats not the Problem.
So how can we avoid a restart? ;)
Thx!

Easy : and I'll excuse upfront for the answer : set an alarm on whenever is "during night" and then do whatever you need to do.
There is no such thing as "pre set" a setting, and have it taken in account at a pre determined (date) time.A openvpn server restart will disconnect all the connected users, I get it.
If you 'really' need this possibility, there is only one solution :
As the GUI handles everything that is 'settings' and 'functionality start' and 'functionality start' the good old "script it yourself" will work just fine ( open source means also IMHO : do what you want with your copy
).
The good news or the bad news - whatever applies to you : it's just PHP.
