I want to run openvpn every time I log on, but currently I run

sudo openvpn --config <myconfig> --auth-user-pass <user/pass>

every time. Is there a way to make it run that automatically and not need my password?

I could make it launch a terminal and run a script but is there a way that would not require me to type my password every time? Can I maybe give myself permissions to whatever openvpn needs so it doesn't need sudo? How do I find out what those permissions are? Is this the right place to ask?

I'm running KDE/Plasma 6 on Manjaro should that matter

edit: Thanks all! I'm going to try the systemd option, if I can't get that working I'll fall back to the cronjob option, and failing that changing openvpn to not need a password for sudo and launching a script at kde statup.

I have installed i2pd from the Manjaro package, and everything seems to be working fine, I can access i2p sites without problem. However I can't access my local console and everything that entails because I get the the following error

Proxy error: Outproxy failure

Host 127.0.0.1 is not inside I2P network, but outproxy is not enabled

I have tried enabling the outproxy (or at least uncommenting all the lines that include the word outproxy in the default i2pd.conf, and setting outproxy.enabled = true), it makes no difference

I'm using foxyproxy to enable and disable the proxy as needed. If it's disabled, or if I use firefox's internal proxy settings, I get s standard "firefox can't find this site" page, so it's clearly doing something!

This is probably a really obvious mistake I'm making with a three second fix, but I have hit a wall and don't know what I'm doing!
