I have a cisco provided VPN for a client which I connect to via openconnect from within a dedicated appVM, and I run an OpenVPN server on my home network and connect to it through the OpenVPN client when not at home from a clone of sys-net for the purpose. I switch which sys-net I run based on if I need to connect to home or not, or I simply don't run the OpenVPN client if I'm using the sys-net with the OpenVPN client but don't need to connect. There are quite a few different ways to skin this cat. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

My vpn service works well on my Raspberry Pi 3 in the command line ( which I found simple instructions for elsewhere on the internet ) and works fine on my windows 10 system as its got an app interface you download.

Best, Wolf Moon Hi Wolf Man Welcome to Qubes. It would be easier to help if you gave some idea of what the problem is: "still no joy" doesn't mean anything. Also, "the Qubes instructions" cover a number of different approaches. Which one did you try? How did the instructions provided by your provider differ from the Qubes? Can you say what provider is involved, and what flavour of vpn you are trying to put in place. Look in the log files for the service, and post relevant extracts - I mean take some time to review the log yourself and then post. The more relevant information you provide, the easier it will be to help. cheers unman Specifics are definitely needed for questions like this. The thing that usually confuses people about the current (old) Qubes doc is there is no button for "ProxyVM" on the R4.0 Create VM dialog. The way to do this in R4.0 is to click on "Provides network" instead. The newer (proposed) doc + qubes-tunnel as suggested by awokd are much easier to install and run more smoothly, BTW. https://github.com/tasket/qubes-doc/blob/tunnel/configuration/vpn.md -- Chris Laprise, tas...@posteo.net https://github.com/tasket https://twitter.com/ttaskett PGP: BEE2 20C5 356E 764A 73EB 4AB3 1DC4 D106 F07F 1886 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

See updated instructions here: https://github.com/tasket/qubes-doc/blob/tunnel/configuration/vpn.md, but note that qubes-tunnel (available from the same author at https://github.com/tasket/qubes-tunnel) has not yet been officially blessed by the Qubes team. > I have contacted the Qubes team after trying my best effort to resolve > this on my own as I know they are a small team of 5 or so last time I > checked.
