[Bug 1374782] Re: OpenVPN interactively asks for a password in an init script

This also affects me, and I don't see any easy workaround.  Trusty used
upstream 2.3.2, but turned off "enable-systemd"; Utopic turns it on, and
that makes openvpn execute systemd-ask-password, but with stdin set to
/dev/null, whcih makes it pretty hard to interact with.

It seems to me that openvpn auth-user-pass mode is broken on Utopic with
no easy workaround.
