Viscosity not reconnecting on disconnect

Hey all,
Recently i've noticed my VPN will disconnect but Viscosity does not seem to reconnect, despite the option being selected. Is this a known issue or is there a fix?
Cheers

Hi Zaeed,
This is a known issue and we are still working on a fix unfortunately.
In the mean time, to work around this, edit your connect, go to the Advanced tab and on a new line add the following:
remap-usr1 SIGTERM
Save your connection and reconnect. This will cause OpenVPN to terminate in the case of a drop out which Viscosity will correctly detect and then reconnect.
Regards,
Eric

Hey,
Just found it had disconnected again, even with that code added in.
Looking at the logs I see this:
Mar 17 21:34:07: FRAG TTL expired i=17
Mar 18 14:19:12: FRAG TTL expired i=2
Mar 18 14:19:12: FRAG TTL expired i=4
Mar 21 00:16:02: [Server-3089-3a] Inactivity timeout (--ping-restart), restarting
Mar 21 00:16:02: SIGTERM[soft,ping-restart] received, process exiting
Mar 21 00:16:02: State changed to Disconnected
Any thoughts as to what is going on?

Hi Zaeed,
We believe we have resolved the bug in the latest beta, please give it a go, you can remove the remap-usr1 command using it -
