| + | # Why my OpenVPN tunnel does not work after resuming from sleep or hibernation on Windows? |
| + | |
| + | This is a bug in the OpenVPN Windows Service wrapper. |
| + | |
| + | There are several reasons why such a bug exists in the first place: |
| + | |
| + | * The Windows Service wrapper in OpenVPN could use a lot of improvement |
| + | * It has not been touched in years |
| + | * No developer has had the skills and/or interest to fix it |
| + | * Most developers are volunteers and there has not been any commercial interest in fixing it |
| + | |
| + | Fortunately there are better, more modern alternatives for it the Windows Server wrapper such as the [Non-Sucking Service Manager](http://nssm.cc). More information on configuring NSSM for OpenVPN is available in [this email thread](http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.network.openvpn.user/35533/focus=35539) and the "Integrating OpenVPN with NSSM" wiki page. |
