ANSWERED Connect loop on Linux using NetworkManager

[Lightn1ng 2]

Hello,

 

I am running Gentoo Linux ~amd64 and installed the Eddie dependencies and downloaded the portable version. When I log in and connect, it connects for 1 second, then instantly disconnects and tries a different server. This goes on until I close the program. There is nothing weird in Eddie's log:

I experimented a bit more and found a line 

 

. 2018.03.02 18:49:14 - OpenVPN > Linux ip link set failed: could not execute external program

Hello!

Please check here.

It may also be beneficial to use the experimental client while you're there.

Holy cow, thank you!

 

It looks like Gentoo Linux puts the file in /bin rather than /sbin. Creating a symbolic link with:

 

sudo ln -sv /bin/ip /sbin/ip

fixed it instantly.

 

Thanks!
