openvpn3-service-backendstart - OpenVPN 3 Linux VPN client backend starter
Contents
Description
This service is automatically started when the openvpn3-service-sessionmgr requests a new VPN tunnel to
be initiated. This service has the responsibility to start the openvpn3-service-client process and
provide enough information to it so it can register itself against a session object in the
openvpn3-service-sessionmgr service.
This service is normally started automatically when needed, via the net.openvpn.v3.backendstart.service
auto-start configuration by the dbus-daemon(1), but can also be started manually on the command line.
Beware that running this with another user account than _openvpn also requires updating the D-Bus policy
as well.
