question 1:
are you able with this new version, to logout, and then login with the new command

Code: Select all

nordvpn login --nordaccount

In your much earlier post here: viewtopic.php?p=661237#p661237

you added a 3 sec delay to /etc/init.d/nordvpn:

Code: Select all

sudo sed  -i '/ start)/a\    sleep 3' /etc/init.d/nordvpn

Now with

Code: Select all

sh -c "pidof -q nordvpnd && exit; test  -f /etc/init.d/nordvpn && sleep 5 && sudo /etc/init.d/nordvpn restart"

there is a further 5 second delay.

So the total delay you are suggesting is 8 secs? (for what it's worth, I reduced the delay in /etc/init.d/nordvpn to 1 sec; I wasn't sure whether I supposed to delete the whole sleep line so I just reduced the number of secs)

Thank you, your solution work for me in nordvpn 3.12.1
I guess it is not the last one for the next versions

Type it in, press enter, and then close terminal. The second command is what you put in the command box in Session&Startup. The third command is the same command as the second, but with the option to auto connect upon login. That's the one I use. To do this, first go to Menu, then Settings, and scroll down until you see Session&Startup. Click on that and when it opens up, click on Application Autostart. There is a little plus icon (+) at the bottom right of the window. Click on that. In the first entry box that says Name, type: NordVPN. In the second box that says Description, type: Restart NordVPN. In the third box that says Command, type in either the second command @fehlix gave in order to restart the service without auto connecting, or use the third command to restart plus auto connect the service. Which command you use is up to you. As @asqwerth already mentioned. Also, reboot your computer after doing all of that. Check to see if it worked.You can type in terminal: nordvpn status. I suggest reading the #28 post @fehlix made about this again. viewtopic.php?t=67290&start=20 Hope this clarifies things for you! Good luck!
