For some reason the debian template didn't install when I installed Qubes, even though I selected it. No matter I thought, I'll do it manually.

[qubes-users] Re: Qubes 4.0-rc2 networking issues
I must have done something else because I got error messages when I tried to reset the firewall and sys-net VMs, so rather than spending any more time fiddling around I reinstalled and was more careful about the boxes I checked. While it's a good idea to have the option of seting update through Tor by default I think it could be better explained in the installer, and the checkbox shouldn't be positioned as a subset of the Whonix option but should instead be set away from the template VM options. > > How about trying this: > > On the Qubes VM Manager find Fedora-25 template -> right click on that > and select VM settings -> Change the NetVM from sys-whonix (or any other > Whonix-gateway VM) to sys-firewall -> click OK > > > I tried changing the networking options in the sys-net and firewall > VMs but that simply dropped the connection.

[qubes-users] Qubes 4.0-rc2 networking issues
I just installed RC2 for the first time, ticking the 'enable Tor' box corresponding to the Whonix template. After booting and connecting to WiFi I was surprised to note that the Whonix Gateway started with the 'connecting to Tor' dialog when I started the Fedora-25 template to update it. So it seems everything was being routed through Tor even though I was not using Whonix. I tried changing the networking options in the sys-net and firewall VMs but that simply dropped the connection. I then tried to reset again and got an error message saying the VM settings could not be changed. Can someone tell me the default settings for the sys-net and firewall VMs? I only want Whonix to route through Tor. Hopefully I wont have to reinstall it again. Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
