On windows, I want to give permissions for running openvpn to standard user.
ovpn crashes everytime with insufficient permissions.
the message is something like "CreateFile ///global/{....}.tap Acces
Denied.
If I run it as administrators group member, the OVPN starts corretly.
I don't want to give Admin rights to user .
What can I do for it?
Wait and see :-)
Currently you can't run OpenVPN without admin rights on Windows. There is
work in progress to solve this by adding a "management interface" to the
openvpn service.
The service will continue to run with admin privs, but a normal user will
be able to control the service to start and stop openvpn connections.
I'm working on rewriting OpenVPN GUI to make use of this service.
