As you can see the eddie-cli has connected to Salm however its by the default TCP/UDP and not using the SSH protocol, I have also tried this with SSL I need to use alternative protocols due to ISP throttling. . 2022.10.16 15:40:26 - OpenVPN > [Salm] Peer Connection Initiated with [AF_INET]213.152.161.22:443 Can anyone please advise?

OpenSourcerer 1442 Posted ... Can confirm that eddie-cli does not honor the --mode.protocol argument. Looks like a bug to me here.

Clodo 177 Posted ... Please try eddie-cli --login="foo" --password="bar" \ --connect="True" \ --netlock="True" \ --server="Salm" \ --mode.type="openvpn" \ --mode.protocol="tcp" \ --mode.port="22" \ --mode.alt="3" I added the mode.type="openvpn" only for coherence, it's the default. I changed "mode.protocol" from "SSH" to "TCP". (case doesn't matter). This is a changed behavior some Eddie version ago about "mode.protocol" meaning, that now is UDP or TCP, nothing else. Eddie automatically detects that requested entry-ip and port are supported over SSH transport, and uses SSH. A tip: run Eddie UI, change options with the UI (like choose the SSH) and after use Logs->Lifebelt and look "Important options not at defaults", here you can find the right options that can be used as parameters of eddie-cli: mode.type: openvpn mode.protocol: TCP mode.port: 22 mode.alt: 3 Quote Share this post Link to post

Otherwise, UDP 443 is used. Eddie v2.22.1, by the way. Quote Hide OpenSourcerer's signature Hide all signatures NOT AN AIRVPN TEAM MEMBER. USE TICKETS FOR PROFESSIONAL SUPPORT.

Thx Just like friend trying connecting via SSH and SSL too, both not available. Win11. Might be ONT-terminal are blocking or similar. Wireguard are working. Quote Share this post Link to post
