Assistance needed regarding failing vpn.
Posted by Wulf_Man
I have just installed a fresh Ubuntu and then the TomSparksBox and then tried to install the Media containers. I am not having any luck getting the VPN to work. I have Nord VPN. I am using the manual connection credentials for open vpn, the logs seem to indicate it connects fine, but then it closes the connection. I am at my wits end. Please can someone try to assist me in getting this to work.
