using connman to connect to proton vpn

#1 Post by fiuewpg,vc »

more vpn questions...

in my eagerness to disappear, i am trying to configure connman so that i can use proton VPN.
according to the connman manual, i need to have a Host = IP address value.
however, the .ovpn file provided by proton doesn't seem to provide this: or at least i can't see it.

Code: Select all

client
dev tun
proto udp

remote jp-free-03.protonvpn.com 80
remote jp-free-03.protonvpn.com 443
remote jp-free-03.protonvpn.com 4569
remote jp-free-03.protonvpn.com 1194
remote jp-free-03.protonvpn.com 5060

remote-random
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
cipher AES-256-CBC
auth SHA512
comp-lzo no
verb 3

tun-mtu 1500
tun-mtu-extra 32
mssfix 1450
persist-key
persist-tun

reneg-sec 0

remote-cert-tls server
auth-user-pass
pull
fast-io

script-security 2
up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
...and... is it worth just installing network manager to make this configuration easier? i have liked using connman so far though

You need to install connman-vpn additionally and the configuration will come after /var/lib/connman-vpn/
