Will the new ports test work here, to at least show that it is listening?

I need to monitor OpenVPN service on a remote server (OpenVPN is already monitored as a PROC locally on that server)
OpenVPN is SSL-based, so, I made up a service entry as below. The test is failing, got 'unexpected service response'm w/o any data. Because a shared HMAC secret is used for this OpenVPN server, a connection attempt w/o the HMAC secret will not be able to get the certificate (maybe this is why it fails?).
In the default configuration, OpenVPN is only UDP traffic - Hobbit has no support for communicating with this type of service.
Assuming you did configure OpenVPN for TCP, then it is likely that the SSL protocol is either wrapped inside an OpenVPN header, or some OpenVPN traffic needs to precede the actual SSL handshake.
[openvpn] expect "CONNECTED(00000003)" option ssl port 12345
That "expect" string will never match; the "CONNECTED" string is a debugging output from the OpenSSL "s_client" utility.
Your best bet is probably to enable the OpenVPN management service, and check that with a normal "http" status check.
