Hello

In this doc https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/vpn/, a configuration is described 
where app vms connect to the firewall VPN, which connects to the VPN proxy, and 
finally the net vm.

Was this correctly documented as a configuration? Should the VPN proxy sit 
behind the firewall?

Thanks

You should theoretically be able to use VPNVM as a firewall. However, there is a bug in qubes-firewall that causes "Deny Except" mode to block all DNS traffic when a VPN/tunnel is used. The obvious workaround is to create another proxyVM to be placed between appVM and VPNVM.

If you would rather avoid creating an extra proxyVM, you can use a VPN project that contains a fix for the DNS bug:

Also, in most cases no firewallVM is needed between VPNVM and sys-net, so the following chain is OK:
appVM -> VPNVM -> sys-net
