[Openvpn-users] rcopenvpn status



Hi all,

I have a simple question, probably because I'm a newby to Linux and
openvpn.

I have a remote site where I can only connect via ssh. On the site, the
openvpn has stopped running. I need to get it running permanently via
ssh login. I logged in and started it with rcopenvpn start. It reported 
Starting openvpn: Done
when I check with rcopenvpn status, it reports
openvpn: service not started
which is correct - it is not running. 

When I start it with 
openvpn etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/client.conf 
in the ssh session, it runs. When I log out it is killed.
If I look into the yast "System -- Runelevel Editor: Services" it is
reported as running. Confusing.

How can I get it to run permanently from a ssh login, even after a
logout?

Thanx for the help.

Al
