+===== Running openvpn server as a service =====
+Debian 12 ships with systemd units for this. The way to run it is to first make sure the server configuration file is located in ///etc/openvpn/server// directory. The file must end with .conf. So if you have a configuration file called ''myvpnserver.conf'' you need to run it as
+  systemctl enable --now openvpn-server@myvpnserver
+Check logs with
+  journalctl -xefu openvpn-server@server.service
