Followed the Docs, changed every template to the newly downloaded fedora 28 in 
qubes settings and the global settings then removed fedora 28 in dom0 after 
checking everthing first.

Thank you. 

 Starting to get my head around Qubes.

[qubes-users] kushal das told me to do it

2018-09-18 Thread Wolf moon
Guys I was told the fedora 26 that came with my latest version of qubes 4.0 is 
out of date so after a google search I found kushal das's page telling me to 
open up dom 0 and enter sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-fedora-28

https://kushaldas.in/posts/fedora-28-template-is-available-on-qubesos.html

It ran and installed fine.

The thing is..( as rick would say )..I still have fedora 26-dvm default 
(sys-firewall) in my qubes manager and all my templates are still saying 
fedora-26.

Any ideas what and where I should go from here?

Best,

Wolf moon

Okay guys so I am signed up to Nordvpn. ( To note: I always update everything 
in Qube manager )

I started off by google searching how to set up a vpn on qubes. I dont have 
every forum page be it google groups or reddit page saved I read unfortunately. 

But they generally instructed me to do go through the steps to set up a vpn as 
Qubes instructs on their page 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/vpn/#set-up-a-proxyvm-as-a-vpn-gateway-using-networkmanager

Specifically Set up a ProxyVM as a VPN gateway using iptables and CLI scripts

What I was referencing referring to the diagram/photo being outdated or of the 
old version of Qubes prior to 4.0 was the Dom0 create a new Vm. It just comes 
up looking different which is what one of the OPs mentioned on one of the how 
to guides I found. 

Moving forward.

Certain commands didn't work like sudo which after googling one forum posted in 
Qubes you dont use sudo much, dnf ( what ever that is ) is used instead which 
is what I used.

I created a Qube named it Nordvpn > Template > Fedora-26 > Networking > sys-net 
Appvm

>From there the rest of the instructions didn't work on Qubes for me.

Apart from downloading the nord config files successfully which are in my 
nordvpn documents folder with all the server addresses as txt files eg 
uk648.nordvpn.comtcp443.ovpn

Also was instructed to download nano reader and a few other things.

My cd ls in my nordvpn terminal is as follows 

DesktopMusic  Templates   nano.save
Documents  Pictures   Videos  openvpn-client.ovpn.txt
Downloads  Public  auth-user-pass  pass.txt

( To note and jumping ahead: following tasket's Reddit page on Qubes vpn set up 
instructions I added vpn-handler-openvpn to services in the appvm I named 
Nordvpn )

So from there comes Nordvpns reply ( they were very helpful before helping me 
successfully setting up my vpn link on my Raspberry Pi )

I received this email: 

Hello, Adam,

I have checked your OS documentation and it would be great if you could test 
out the following setup:
Disable any auto-starting service that comes with the software package. For 
example for OpenVPN.
sudo systemctl disable openvpn.service
You may also wish to install nano or another simple text editor for entering 
the scripts below. Now run the following command to create VPN directory:
sudo mkdir /rw/config/vpn
Enter the directory using the following command:
cd 
/rw/config/vpn

Then our website - https://nordvpn.com/servers/#recommended , on the server 
picker you will see recommended server number. Then open 
https://nordvpn.com/ovpn/ website and download recommended server file. You can 
download directly to device and transfer to your VM or use command to download 
from the hyperlink:
sudo wget 
https://downloads.nordcdn.com/configs/files/ovpn_legacy/servers/us1310.nordvpn.com.udp1194.ovpn
(Change the last line of server name to download the correct file). Then rename 
downloaded file to client.ovpn
The VPN client may not be able to prompt you for credentials when connecting to 
the server. Create a file in the /rw/config/vpn folder with your credentials 
and using a directive. For example for OpenVPN, edit:
auth-user-pass
to:
auth-user-pass pass.txt

Save file /rw/config/vpn/client.ovpn. Make sure a /rw/config/vpn/pass.txt file 
actually exists.
sudo nano /rw/config/vpn/pass.txt
Add:
username
password
Replace username and password with your actual username and password.
Test your client configuration: Run the client from a CLI prompt in the ‘vpn’ 
folder, preferably as root. For example:
sudo openvpn --cd /rw/config/vpn --config client.ovpn
Watch f

To note. I am running my Raspberry pi on one monitor on my desk to reply to 
this forum whilst Qubes is up and running on a separate machine and monitor on 
my desk so I can live mutlitask today and/or when ever I receive a reply.

Hi guys sorry I didnt see the replies but I have now and thank you for them. 
Yes you are right of course I do need to add a lot more detail. I will go ahead 
and add as much detail of what has gone on so far and where I am at. 

Best,

[qubes-users] Calling qubes expets VPN sign in headache! Nordvpn wont work

2018-09-17 Thread Wolf moon
Guys despite going through guides like 
https://github.com/tasket/Qubes-vpn-support etc there are parts that qubes gets 
stuck on like in the mentioned guide I get to step 2 and it does not recognise 
command 1n which sticks me at that stage. 

I have all the config files downloaded from nord. 

Can you show me either a simpler way to sign on to my vpn account or point me 
in the right direction of a guide that actually works.

I had no issues signing into my vpn service via the command line on my 
raspberry pi and on my windows 10 machine it was even easier as it could 
download an app. 

Best,

Wolf moon

[qubes-users] New to Qubes having issues logging into my vpn service despite following the Qubes instructions

2018-09-14 Thread Wolf moon
Hi guys New to Qubes ( which is an amazing feat of cyber security engineering ) 
all working fine and learning my way around it. 

My only issue is logging into my vpn service. 

I have followed the Qubes instructions ( which the images are different to 
Qubes 4.0 and after searching the net on this matter someone said that this is 
a shot of the previous Qubes so not helpful there ) I also contacted my vpn 
service on the matter. They read up on the Qubes instructions and emailed me 
back a step by step guide but still no joy. 

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.

Its just Qubes I am having issues with. I am by no means a hardcore techy, I am 
learning and not afraid or unfamiliar using the command line in linux. 

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.

Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Best,

Wolf Moon
