try to connect repeatedly until successful?

[Zxurian 3]

I currently have AirVPN connecting via an OpenVPN .conf file on my ubuntu machine.

It's setup to pick a random server from the list provided by the AirVPN .conf generator.

 

However, on some servers it receives an AUTH_FAILED control message, and then disconnects.

Is there a way I can have OpenVPN automatically try a new server if it fails to connect to one?

Hello!

 

Yes, this is provided by the remote-random directive.

 

Please generate a configuration file in the following way:

 

- tick "Advanced Mode"

- tick "Resolved hosts in .ovpn file"

- tick "All servers for area or region"

 

It might be that you have some old IP addresses of servers that are no more operational. Now and then we lose servers due to conflicts with the provider.

 

Kind regards
