Re: [qubes-users] Cannot execute commands in terminal - not root?
Yes, I just used su and did everything listed in the guide (with su I could edit files via terminal etc without any problems) but it still does not work. The VPN won't work, I did everything according to the guide in the link in my first post. For instance I did everything in the ProxyVM then I configured my personal VM to route through the ProxyVM but when I open Firefox and try to enter any website on my personal VM it does not connect. I cannot connect to any website. I have no idea what is wrong. Is that guide faulty by any chance? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

I tried running the Mullvad commands to install OpenVPN in the Debian-8 templateVM but it did not work. I get the following error message: "Resolving swupdate.openvpn.net ... failed: Name or service not known. wget: unable to resolve host address 'swupdate.openvpn.net' gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found." But the same commands do work in the debian-8 AppVM. What's the issue? I'm going to try installing debian-9 but would highly appreciate an answer to why I'm unable to install OpenVPN right from the debian templateVM. And no, from what I re-call I was unable to ping a known IP address from the AppVM. BUt the connectio did seem to go through when I used the openvpn command in the ProxyVM. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Re: [qubes-users] Cannot execute commands in terminal - not root?
Alright. But I have another question. In the guide you linked, on step 4, it tells me to add 3 lines to my openvpn-client.ovpn file. Where do I add these 3 lines in this file? Is it fine if I just put them at the bottom of the file? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Re: [qubes-users] Cannot execute commands in terminal - not root?
Okay, I've followed the guide you linked. But on the third and final script, at the bottom there is the following line of code: sg qvpn -c "$VPN_CLIENT $VPN_OPTIONS" and the guide instructs me to; Change the VPN_CLIENT and VPN_OPTIONS variables to match your VPN software. What is that? What are they referring to? What do I type in instead of VPN_Client and instead of VPN_Options? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

I've done everything according to the guide you sent: 1) I first created the ProxyVM - not standalone - under a Debian template 2) I did the commands found in step 2 of the Mullvad guide to install OpenVPN on the ProxyVM 3) I downloaded an Android configuration file (country: Netherlands) 4) I started following the guide you linked, and did the sudo mkdir command in the ProxyVM to create a vpn folder in /rw/config/, and then I moved my Android configuration file into the newly created vpn folder 5) I then ran this command (step 2 of the qubes-OS link guide): sudo openvpn --cd /rw/config/vpn --config openvpn-client.ovpn and the connection seemed to work 6) I then fixed all the scripts, made them executable and then I restarted the ProxyVM. 7) I changed the configuration of my 'personal' AppVM so that it routes through the ProxyVM. Here's the problem, then: when I open Firefox in my 'personal' AppVM, I simply get a "Problem loading page" when I try to visit any website, such as www.google.com. What am I doing wrong?

Okay, disregard this. I got it to work. But on step 4 in the guide you linked, Chris, what do they mean by "Restart the client and test the connection again... this time from an AppVM!"? Do they mean restart the VPN Client? IF so, how do I do that?

[qubes-users] Re: Cannot execute commands in terminal - not root?
Okay. I solved it. I was doing this wrong: In step 6 at this link: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/vpn/ I forgot to change this line: VPN_OPTIONS='--cd /rw/config/vpn/ --config openvpn-client.ovpn --daemon' to match my VPN provider's .ovpn filename, which is Mullvad_nl.ovpn.

[qubes-users] Re: Cannot execute commands in terminal - not root?
I do have one final question though. Say I want my anon-whonix appVM to first route through my VPN, and then connect to Tor. How do I do this? Is it enough if I just go into VM settings on my anon-whonix appVM, and set the NetVM as my FirewallVM (which is configured to route through my VPN VM)? Or do I have to further configure my VPN VM to route through the sys-whonix VM, which in turn routes through my sys-firewall (not the same as my FirewallVM)? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Randomize mac address on Qubes
So I followed this guide to randomize my mac address: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/anonymizing-your-mac-address/ At the beginning of the guide it prompts me to create a new NetVM in a debian-9 template, which I did. This is the part of the guide I am referring to: "Next, create a new NetVM using the new template and assign network devices to it." I created a new NetVM, named it macspoof and assigned my ethernet and wifi network devices to it. Then, I followed the rest of the guide and now my mac address does change whenever I restart sys-net. Here comes what I'm concerned about: I no longer have internet access via my sys-net VM. I now have to go through the new NetVM I created (the 'macspoof' VM) in order to access the internet, so my sys-firewall has the macspoof VM as its netVM. Is that how it's supposed to be? Or am I still supposed to be using the sys-net VM to access the internet? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

I just discovered one more issue: When I try to setup my VPN as per this guide: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/vpn/ (see step 2) I get an error message running the command: "sudo openvpn --cd /rw/config/vpn --config openvpn-client.ovpn" The error message reads: "Options error: unknown --redirect-gateway flag: ipv6 Use --help for more information."

What you can do is shut down all your windows and left-click the Qubes icon (at the bottom left/top left) then solely use your keyboard to navigate to the Display settings and change resolution. Then send me the exact keyboard strokes you pushed (for example down arrow 2x, right arrow 1x, down arrow 8x, tab 4x etc.) so that I can mimic them and ultimately change my resolution back to 1920x1080.
