Whoa!
Awesome @girish
Thank you !

[andreasdueren]

Hallelujer!

As a sidenote, in the notes in the installed package, the links to the docs is incorrect https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/openvpn/#admin-settings instead of https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/vpn/#admin-settings

Nice!!!! Good work!

Since we got a couple of reports already that it's not working after upgrade...you have to enable WireGuard in the Location section of the app . This only applies to upgrades . When installing, it's selectable at install time. I have put a new release out which says this in the changelog.

@girish thanks a lot for this amazing release!

I upgraded and enable WireGuard in Location section but is not working... I also tried to enable/disable custom DNS server... but nothing

[nebulon]

do you get any error from your client trying to connect to it?

[jdaviescoates]

Loads of people have been waiting for this for ages.

But what are the everyday practical uses it offers me?

My server is in Finland, so I guess I could use it try to accesss Finland only streaming services.

But I'm guessing that's not what people have been waiting all this time for?

What am I missing? What are the use cases?

[p44]

@nebulon No any error, connection is ok but no any data data exchange... Did you got other feedback like this?

[robi]

@p44 does it need a restart?

does a new test app work?

[sponch]

@p44 have you added the ports to your VPS firewall?

[sponch]

Great! Thanks for that cool chrsitmas gift
Got it running using custom dns pointing to my cloudron adguard

[p44]

@sponch Yes... I had not opened the 51820 UDP on the VPS firewall. Now I have opened it and it works perfectly.

Great advice Thanks

[p44]

@robi It was the VPS firewall port not opened. Now everything is fine. thanks a lot

@jdaviescoates Spin up a cheap VPS anywhere else in the world, install Cloudron, and then Wireguard on the free tier, and voila, you now have an IP in that country. I personally use Racknerd (4 US locations, 1 in Dublin), Wishosting (US, Canada, UK, France, Germany) and Hosthatch (see pic below) for these use cases.

Germany

I once tried to use the OpenVPN app on a German server to access German Netflix, but it didn't work

I can't remember what the film I wanted to watch was now (but I think it was something to do with a couple doing a permaculture farm or something), otherwise I'd ask you if you're able to watch that from Thailand using your German VPN...

[humptydumpty]

@jdaviescoates what went wrong? Did Netflix detect your VPN or install/set up issues?

Did Netflix detect your VPN

I'm guessing so. I wasn't clear why it didn't work, but it didn't. Was a long time ago now so can't remember the details.

@jdaviescoates as far as i know netfkix doesnt care about VPN
