    @girish Awesome! That got it. Thanks. The first time I tried it it didn't take after the reboot but I added back in the " " marks and it worked as expected. Thank you so much. And again for the quick response!

    I have also updated the app to use easyrsa3 now. This will roll out slowly since there is a lot of migration code .

    @mehdi GMT +1 but my idea is that when I installed first time Cloudron has Los Angeles time... that's can a possible source of issue.

    This is more involved. First, there is HEAD request with /?embedded=true. Then, there is a POST request to /RPC2. We have to reverse engineer a bit to implement this.

    Recognizing TCP OpenVPN traffic is really not easy, as it kinda looks like any other TLS encrypted stream. As far as I know, doing so requires advanced Deep Packet Inspection capabilities that are only available to few countries, and even this is not foolproof.

    May I ask, @hasan, where are you based?

    @mehdi said in Support VPN Client:

    I don't know a single commercial VPN provider that provides a public IP to each VPN connection

    It is probably because you didn't fell the need 🙂

    I lived in Switzerland and before in Canada, where Torrenting and self hosting is not an issue.
    But since I'm in Thailand; first, Torrenting is it as the Government fell about you, and the Internet is monitored and limited (not as much than China but still) they block several ports and websites.

    It took me a while to find and I chat with a lot of online support to find few of them
    Has I will not recommend it but still a good example PureVPN support this
    you control which port you open with OpenVPN but the IP is dynamic and yes it still through a NAT, and you could buy a static IP available via only PPTP (which they don't claim at loud).

    If I remember well mullvad also offer this kind of service

    My idea came from: https://labriqueinter.net

    Thanks to everyone, I managed to get a few games going, some did not work, but they probably wouldn't run in an actual LAN either. Didn't have to adjust anything, The game I was trying was just not working properly.

    Cheers!

    The just released app package now contains the first settings for admins and also there is a file at /app/data/config.ini now to grant admin rights to users.

    @Trankery https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/commit/b46d3e74d6be94718c3a3df7899dbb6af0b4a407 is the fix for the crash itself.

    But the real solution is to move the domain away from Cloudflare OR change the domain provider to Wildcard. Sucks that they made such a big change with no announcement.

    @girish so is the process I understand about the installing steps the right way for this? thanks for the suggestion, I just know that we can do my.vpnserver.domain.com. Am intending for consumer use for now.
