I'm trying to use the portable version (no mono) of the client on Linux Mint. When I try to connect to a server I get an error "OpenVPN is already running". I don't think I have anything running in background that would cause this message to appear. I have one more VPN client installed on my machine from other provider but I have to manually start it. I checked on System Monitor for processes with "vpn" in name and I didn't find anything. Do you know what may cause this and how to solve the issue?

Hello everyone, I've been an AirVPN customer for about a year now and absolutely love it for many reasons. The only issue I really have is Raspberry Pi support. I just got an RPi3 a few weeks ago and want to set it up as a media server/P2P box. This makes a stable VPN connection with a network lock an absolute necessity. From what I've read here, Eddie is not and probably will never be supported on any Raspberry Pi. I can understand that's a relatively small concern for Air considering the limited use compared to OSX, Linux, and Windows, so I'm not going to complain too much. I will say that it's really a bummer as I love Eddie and it's always running on my PC. So far, I've had to settle by running openvpn with a config file from the terminal (I should mention i'm running Raspbian) with Firestarter as a kill-switch. The problem is I can rarely stay connected for more than 12 hours. This may be due to my internet connection, or a problem with one of Air's servers, but it's a problem either way. This means every day, usually more than once a day, I have to plug my RPi into my TV (or SSH into it) to kill my P2P client, restart openvpn, and restart the firewall. This really isn't the seamless P2P/media center experience I was looking for. I've done a fair amount of searching and can't come up with anything. I was thinking about trying the Debain network manager, but I see that it is not recommended for security reasons, and I'm not sure it would solve my problem anyway. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open to try just about anything as I really wan't to get this up and running. I'm even open to trying out a different OS for the pi if anyone thinks it will make a difference. Worst case scenario, I will try to write up something that does all of this manually. In that case I think my main problem would be detecting when the vpn connection goes down. If anyone knows of a good way to do that (i'll be using Java to make it), please let me know. This post got much longer than I had planned. Thanks for taking the time to read it and helping me out

hi, i'm unable to use eddie so connect to airvpn using the terminal. however, this means that my system uses my ISP's dns servers and not airvpn dns servers. the guide on how to accept push requests mentions that I need to add the following to my openvpn configuration file: now please know that I am a dummy. i have tried putting this script into different openvpn files but have had no luck. could someone tell me exactly in which file this goes and exactly where in the specified file? i've also looked at the config generator but cannot find the "customs directives" field. thanks for any help

I'm not sure where to start on this one tbh. I was sat looking at my comp the other day and came up with the idea of using my router firewall (multi OS boot PC) to reject the majority of unwanted traffic. At the moment on my linux mint install (I'm very new to linux - 2 weeks) this is done by iptables and similar setup on windows OS. With windows this isn't a problem as the tap adapter produces a MAC but on my linux install it uses Tun masquerading as my eth adapter IP/no MAC. I should probably first ask is there a need - it would make life easier and rejects traffic at the router reducing network load, a second(1st) line of leak defence if an accidental change is made? I can't setup a firewall rule on my router (non wrt/tomato) that will give the restrictions needed without a separate MAC or IP to my physical adapter. I have tried to setup a Tap adapter on my linux install and ultimately failed. I have tried (linux mint) using gnome network manager (bridge utils installed) ticking the box use tap and downloaded Airvpn config files (no extra lines at point of download) replacing the lines in the file after putting in directory 'dev tun' with 'dev tap0' along with bridge ip's etc and without. I did read somewhere I may need to change 'update-resolv-conf'... Basically I'm out of my depth without help at this stage and I didn't want to make the huge number of changes some articles I read gave guidance for without further advice and guidance. In summary: 1- Will this indeed work well as a second leak protection measure? 2- Is it worth the effort? 3- Thoughts on the idea? 4- How do I change to use a Tap instead of tun with minimal/succinct changes? IF this makes no sense at all, please feel free to pull me up on it

Hello - using openvpn by importing vpn config files the normal way (not bundling executables). This works on Ubuntu 16.04 and Manjao 16.06 linux so far: I find it only works if I TICK on use LZO Compression (which by default is unticked). It does not work if unticked 1. May i ask why this is the case ? 2. Will this affect my anonimity or connection in any detrimental way ? 3. Will someone be able to update the guide on the How to for linux to update this ?

So I'm running Ubuntu-MATE 16.04 and I've installed network-manager-openvpn-gnome, downloaded the certs. Added Air to my list of VPN's. All seems to work fine, I can connect and get the message that I have connected, however I cannot connect to any website, it just comes up Resolving host and then states that the site cannot be reached. Also on a side note, the .deb package is busted.

Hi, I installed the Eddie client from the .deb package, but when I try to connect I get the error Driver Installation Failed The logs show an error when I installed the client which says: OpenVPN Driver - Not available however, `open-vpn` and `bridge-utils` are installed. Any suggestions to get it working?

This is the first VPN that I've managed to install and get working SEAMLESSLY on Linux. I've tried HMA, PIA ExpressVPN and they are all rubbish for Linux. This looks promising. Congratulations all round

Running Fedora 21, KDE I'm in china Trying to connect via SSH. I tried all 4 port options listed. Same error. I know SSH works (I'm using it right now). In the AirVPN client, I authorize, it gets to local forwarding, and then kills. Is this a setting in the client or is something happening with Fedora that's blocking it?

Hello everyone. I had a question for the forums today. Is it possible to run Eddie (or any other way to connect to AirVPN) on Tails OS? For those who do not know, Tails is a Linux based OS that is very secure and routes all connections through Tor. However, if I am not mistaken, since there is no VPN in that setup, the operator of the Tor relay node can see your actual IP, yes? So, is it possible to use AirVPN on Tails? I tried earlier but it gave me some sort of error when I tried to run the Eddie client's file. Also, will using a VPN on Tails make me more secure? If so, what are the benefits of doing so?

Hi everbody, I wanna use VPN over TOR but there is no Internet traffic after successfully VPN connection. Besides VPN connection disconnects almost after 1 minute because of TCP connection timeout. I've configured proxies from Advanced section of NetworkManager and I'm using SOCKS protocol as proxy type. I'm using Linux OS and NetworkManager to manage my network interfaces and VPN connections. My OpenVPN version is 2.3.0. I've already read this manuel but I couldn't find any solution. Is there any suggestion to overcome this problem? https://airvpn.org/tor/ Solution: - Use Eddie client, - Enable control port and cookie authentication in your torrc file as described at this URL https://airvpn.org/tor/ - Set Tor as connection mode in AirVPN -> Preferences, don't use TCP + Socks Proxy as me (my first mistake) - Be careful with the port numbers; because default port numbers in manuel and Eddie client are respectively 9150 and 9151 but in my torrc file they are 9050, 9051 and it's very easy to overlook for example my situation. (my second mistake) - You can export ovpn configuration file which is special for "VPN over TOR" from Eddie client, so you can use that file to connect VPN from command line using openvpn command. For me it's more easy than using Eddie client.

I am having a bit of trouble editing the resolv.conf file. Aparently, I cant edit it manually as suggested on the Arch wiki. "To use alternative DNS servers, edit /etc/resolv.conf and add them to the top of the file so they are used first, optionally removing or commenting out already listed servers." https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Resolv.conf Although I can open the file and edit it, I can't save the nameservers I entered. (I am as admin with root privileges.) I thought maybe it was being run by another process so I tried lsattr and nothing was holding it. I even ran chattr -i /etc/resolv.conf just to make sure. Still no avail.

Here's the simple problem that I don't know how to fix. I'm trying to use VPN over Tor (User -> Tor -> VPN -> Net). It works fine but I also don't want any traffic to leak so I need to use the network lock. If I activate the network lock, Tor can't connect to the Tor network. That means the AirVPN software can't connect to the VPN service because it needs to route through Tor first and that can't happen because the network lock prevents Tor from establishing a circuit. What to do? ​

Starting this morning, my RPI servers started experiencing disconnects. I have to run tcp client, since UDP on 443 seems to get messed with somehow. Is there a fix? Everything has been working with TCP But suddenly, began disconnecting and reconnecting almost immediately again and again. Thankfully, I am sorted now. Based on info in the forums about possible DNS hijacking, I changed my openvpn config to Canada from all North America and for greater certainty reset my iptables rules from the latest client. Best way to do this, I found is by running the latest client on my linux laptop, exporting the rules using (as root) >iptables-save > iptables_2016-03-12.saved That generates a file that can be loaded on any linux box using: >iptables-restore <iptables_2016-03-12.saved then remembering to do: > sudo netfilter-persistent save This guarantees the network lock persists across reboots. My connections have been up 40 minutes and an hour plus since then. Anybody else notice anything?

Hi, I currently have an old Laptop I am trying to use as an intermediary box between my main home network and my personal machines connected to a particular switch. I want these machines to be connected to the VPN at all times, from startup to shutdown, and to have protection from the network dropping, etc. I honestly tried using pfSense but I just could not wrap my head around it, even the default install when connected to my modem directly and a single test machine, could not even properly resolve DNS queries. So I gave up and threw mint on the laptop and enabled ICS instead. Works great, test box connected to it has internet, etc. Now the trouble comes when I want to use AirVPN. I can't use Network lock and I don't know how to resolve the issue in terms of letting me get my local machines access again. I've already verified AirVPN works over the ICS without the network lock on. I've very minorly futzed with trying to add "allowed IPs" and such in advanced options, but either didn't do it in the right place / correctly etc. Because it still blocks access. Could anyone help with some troubleshooting steps, where / how I need to change things? Thanks

Im running Lubuntu, and i would like to keep network lock active, even when airVPN client is closed. I accidentally close the program, which caused me to leak my IP. Could someone please give me specific steps on how to achieve this thanks

Hello, I'm using Archlinux with Privoxy as my proxy. I downloaded the config file for the terminal and set it up so that port 8118 is used for proxy (which is the one Privoxy uses). I am using TCP-443. At first glance everything seems to be in order, but I have never been able to connect in the past few days. I also have good wifi signal. In anycase, the logs suggest to me that the problem lies with the server. But I can not be certain. I am dumping the logs here, can you make any sense out of them? What do you think is the problem? Many thanks!

Hello, I'm using Debian Linux with AirVPN client over Tor network (with Vidalia control panel). Finally, he can connect and verify login&password, but fail on connect to server.

Hi AirVPN community ... Im a bit noobs with kali (and linux also but i try my best to install it via some tutorials and forums (install network-manager-openvpn-gnome) ... but after i see this post : https://airvpn.org/topic/12509-kali/ ... i know that seem to be the answer to my problem but the tutorial is a bit too geek for me ... so maybe someone can help me with this ... to much dependencies and no command how to make it ;( its working with network-manager but staff let me know that is buggy and my connection is always on and off or disconnect for no reason ... (dns leaks) ... so i want to start the good way and remove all this buggy stuff ... thanks for your time CT

I've setup a Ubuntu 15.10 64bit server as a VM for my torrenting, I'm running openvpn from the command line using a config file generated from this site. When my torrents are running I see a lot of error like below: I've disabled port forwarding on my router just to check if that was causing an issue but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I've tested downloading a torrent with openvpn running on my physical laptop using the same config file and on a Xubuntu VM and I only this error once ever few minutes so its definitely something on the Ubuntu server VM that's causing the problem. Any ideas what the issue is?

I've been running Fedora 22 for a while and had to install beesu in order to get Eddie functioning,however having beesu installed is causing me issues when it comes to upgrading to Fedora 23. I'm thinking of going to OpenSuse KDE but will I need to install beesu on Open Suse in order to get Eddie working? I'm open to all ideas here as I'm still a Linux noob so the more input the better. Thanks

I'm testing AirVPN on Linux Mint 17.3 using the .deb package that I found on the Air site. I had used three other VPN services and always had debilitating speed issues, especially when using AES-256-CBC (OpenVPN). I decided to try AirVPN. I installed the .deb files with the client. I am on the East coast of the US. I tried a Pennsylvania server and the speed was not very good. (I get an average of 25 Mbps download speed through my ISP without the VPN.) I then tried two other servers in the US and I'm getting up to 25 Mbps on three different speed tests. My IP is anonymous and there is no DNS leakage or IPv6 leakage. But after my previous experiences, I'm suspicious of the speeds I'm registering using some of the AirVPN US based servers. It makes me wonder whether encryption is being used, and if so, to what level. I haven't found a way to check that. I'm going to try Wireshark to see if the connection is encrypted. Does anyone have any ideas about this? Thank you.

I was suffering this problem for a long time in the past, but now I have found the reason for it and I want to share this - maybe it could help someone. I was using different Linux versions of portable Eddie-Clients (x64) and I had this issue when Eddie failed to start sometimes at first try after system reboot, so I had to kill 'airvpn' process as root and restart it again. It happened about 1 time out of 5 and it was a bit annoying to be honest. I experienced this issue on different Linux distros: Linux Mint, Linux Mint Debian Edition 1 and 2... Now I have found the reason for this: I was running portable Eddie from a NTFS formatted drive - I was needed this drive to be Windows-compatible at that time, but now I don't. So, about a week ago I formatted it to Ext4 and now portable Eddie starts everytime without problem! The conclusion is: Linux version of portable Eddie sometimes fails to start from NTFS filesystem. That's it. I just wanted to inform everybody.

Is it possible to make sure the vpn is running as soon as possible at computer boot? Like, before logging in, if possible? I have Noetwork Manager set to require the vpn when connecting to wifi, is that enough? I'm on Linux Mint Thank you!

Hello, I'm having a really weird issue. I initially had ufw setup, but my speeds were horrendous. Pings all worked well everywhere with good latency, but connecting (www, ssh, etc) to anything took forever! After trying many different servers I disabled my firewall, and BAM speeds were excellent. So I said screw it, lets try the network lock on the AirVPN GUI and there we go again with incredibly slow speeds. I'm running Ubuntu 15.10 if that matters, I'm all out of ideas any assistance would be appreciated as I really don't want to leave the firewall off.
