ANSWERED Tunnel does not initialize with airconnectatboot flag.

[senkoin 1]

I've managed to get Bluetit/Goldcrest working on my archlinux seedbox vm with the command

goldcrest --air-connect

pulling the

--network-lock off

and

--air-server alpherg

variables from the config file. However when I try to uncomment

airconnectatboot        server

and reboot, the machine becomes unaccessable from ssh. Accessing the machine from the Proxmox gui at this point gets me this.

  I can see that it's not reading from the config it says it is as the config has Network filter set to off, whereas it says it's set to use iptables in the status output.

and here is /etc/airvpn/bluetit.rc. If I attempt to --disconnect bluetit will hang with

ERROR: Cannot allow system DNS to pass through network filter

I could really use some help.

Hello!

Please avoid screenshots whenever possible. Can you please send us the complete Bluetit log taken after the problem has occurred? You can extract it with:

sudo journalctl | grep bluetit > bluetit.log

Then send us the created bluetit.log file.

If possible, please test also with AirVPN Suite 2.0.0 preview and check whether the problem persists or not:

Sorry about that. I'm not able to copy from the webgui terminal unfortunately. Thanks for the quick reply.

I tested the beta build and it does seem to be working as intended.
