Description

I like to say that there is a problem with openvpn when you have more than one vpn in the list and you click on the start/stop button the vpn is reacting strange.

If you click on the button of the first vpn the second react or if you click again the first vpn reacts, and when clicking again both vpn are enabled just clicking the start/stop button of the first vpn?

This could also if you click the button of the second vpn.

i have this thread opened on the forum
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/bug-in-openvpn-luci/120455/6

I did contact openvpn and mentioned i needed to report this to openwrt
