I configured everything I needed via gui, to connect via appvm, but that might 
not work for you. Here's what I did:

I thought I'd replied to this already, but I don't see it here (maybe it was on 
Reddit).  Anyway, the use of a VPN with Tor Browser is a source of debate 
whether or not you're better off security-wise.  Whonix devotes an entire doc 
to the subject.  The gist is you're probably better off without VPN when using 
Whonix unless you have a very specific need and know what you're doing.
