Using systemctl allows specifying the configuration with openvpn@<config>.=
=C2=A0 Although 'service' on Linux should also allow specifying a configura=
tion, testing on Ubuntu 24 isn't working using "service openvpn start <conf=
 file without the ".conf" extension).
Is there a way on Windows to specify which configuration to use when using =
"net start <openvpn service name>"?
Thanks for your help.
