Can anybody help, I'm running the latest version of openvix with Oscam and openvpn enabled

everything runs fine but after a couple of hours I get the following error message from openvpn

Inactivity timeout (--ping-restart), restarting

Although it looks like openvpn restarts up, it then blocks all internet activity until it is stopped and restarted. It also requires a restart of oscam as it blocks that channel for awhile.

Although not an issue for me trying to explain to the wife how to reset these services is too hard.

Please if anybody can help and save me from the ear ache of the wife not being able to watch 16 and pregnant or what ever crap she watches would be appreciated.

My open vpn cone file is below

[.conf]
client
dev tun
proto udp
remote us-east.privateinternetaccess.com 1197
resolv-retry infinite
nobind

cipher aes-256-cbc

crl-verify /etc/openvpn/crl.rsa.4096.pem

Doubt this is the fix but maybe worth trying until someone else comments....
You could reduce the keepalive to 150 or even 60 to test and see if it makes a difference. If not, then no problem in changing it back.
