OpenVPN disconnect
 

I am using OpenVPN to connect to a remote server,.
I do so with this command:
/usr/sbin/openvpn --remote 123.45.678.90 --dev tunX

To disconnect, I did a ctrl-z
Apparently this doesn't really disconnect, because when i reconnect, i get this msg:

Mon Feb 7 12:02:42 2005 0[0]: OpenVPN 1.6_rc4 i686-pc-linux-gnu [SSL] [LZO] [PTHREAD] built on Oct 2 2004

How do I really disconnect?

ctrl-z will suspend the job, not abort it. try ctrl-z and then type bg - it will send the job to background as if you typed
command &
to bring it back to foreground, ctrl-z and fg, and ctrl-c will abort the job in foreground.

ok thanks
