[Openvpn-users] Re: Tray Showing for OpenVPN GUI Problem

[Lonnie Cumberland <lonnie@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

One more thing to possibly consider, ok.

Maybe it would be a simple and efficient fix to just have a command-line 
switch "openvpngui -restart" perhaps that will kill any active process 
and restart OpenVPN GUI since that was one of the ways that I was able 
to have the tray icon re-show back up after a system reboot.

Just an idea though,
Lonnie
