how often do we start this discussion
how did yu enable DIFFERENT openvpn-connections before systemd?
I only had (and have) one openvpn service, so the issue didn't arise.
I assume anyone running more than one openvpn service
(a tiny minority, I imagine)
would realise they had to take steps to deal with this.
why do you no simply create ION file to do what you like?
Because I didn't know what an ION file was until you gave an example.)
Basically, I don't like to change the default system
more than is absolutely necessary,
as I have little confidence in my ability to understand the implications.
