Right, one would think so, but this doesn't seem to effect this behavior either. Shutting down and start up OpenVPN immediately effects the behavior, indicating this behavior is dynamic. I've been searching for a way to effect this behavior, perhaps in a configuration file (/etc/sysconfig... or /proc/...) with no luck so far. Brett
