Openvpn reconnect


Hopefully this is posted in the correct area... Raspberry Pi, I am having issues with openvpn reconnecting after a drop in wifi. It should reconnect but for some reason the VPN isn't reconnecting. I found something about using wicd postconnect scripts to cause openvpn to restart after connection. I have never written a script so have no idea and everything I tried failed. Can anyone help me make openvpn restart whenever I connect to my wifi?

Thanks

I'm guessing you've already taken a look at? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/wicd#Scripts
There's a section where it explains how to create a postconnect script.
