This is not something we want to support, we do not want to ask users for their credentials on every connect. Having the client store the credentials defeats the purpose.

However, in 3.x server we are considering supporting querying the LDAP server before allowing the client to connect to see whether the user still exists:

In addition, we designed this feature:

https://todo.sr.ht/~eduvpn/server/78

This will delete the authorization on disconnect, and force the user to authenticate every time. This might be something you can use? If so please let us know and we'll add it as a preview feature in 3.0.5.
