In what sense openvpn *doesn't* run like every other service?

I have openvpn set up and running here on my laptop. The client is basically 
always active and retries periodically to reconnect to the remote server until 
success (laptop might not always have a connection to the Internet). I never 
hibernate the machine, but suspending to RAM and back is completely 
transparent, openvpn stays active all the time.

I'm on F16 here, but there should be no difference to F17 AFAIK, since both use 
systemd.

All I did to set up openvpn with systemd was to follow instructions on the 
Fedora wiki:

What exactly is the problem in your case?

HTH, :-)
