Trying it out now!

@acidhax did this work for you?

Starting the service with systemctl yields in a service masked error. After attempting to unmask the service, no changes are noticed. I've attached a log of my commands.

root@galileo:~# systemctl start openvpn@client.service
Failed to start openvpn@client.service: Unit openvpn@client.service is masked.
root@galileo:~# systemctl unmask openvpn@client.service
root@galileo:~# systemctl enable openvpn@client.service
The unit files have no [Install] section. They are not meant to be enabled
using systemctl.
Possible reasons for having this kind of units are:
1) A unit may be statically enabled by being symlinked from another unit's
   .wants/ or .requires/ directory.
2) A unit's purpose may be to act as a helper for some other unit which has
   a requirement dependency on it.
3) A unit may be started when needed via activation (socket, path, timer,
   D-Bus, udev, scripted systemctl call, ...).
