Hi, I have a problem that may come from eddie or my system. I recently switched to linux from windows, so I’m not well known in how things are working. I’ve configured the OpenSSH server on my laptop. I’m not using the port 22 but another port X. It’s working when ssh-ing on it’s local IP from another device on my LAN (and also from itself on localhost). I have eddie installed on the laptop, configured and working on the device "Laptop". ❯ sudo ip addr show dev Eddie 10: Eddie: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1320 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/none inet [IPv4]/32 scope global Eddie valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 [IPv6]/128 scope global valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever I have a forwarded port set in the client area from port Y :2 to port X, set to the correct device "Laptop". I’ve set a [ABC].airdns.org DDNS on that forwarded port. That forwarding was working when I was on windows to connect to a ssh server listening on the same port X. I’ve added UFW rules to allow connections from Anywhere to port X for IPv4 and IPv6. ❯ sudo ufw status verbose Status: active Logging: on (low) Default: deny (incoming), allow (outgoing), disabled (routed) New profiles: skip To Action From -- ------ ---- [port X]/tcp ALLOW IN Anywhere (log) [port X]/tcp (v6) ALLOW IN Anywhere (v6) (log) When ssh-ing to the [ABC].airdns.org on port Y from another device not using a vpn, UFW is receiving the connection on port X and allowing it(I’ve anonymized the IP and ports in the following logs.) 2025-02-14T17:20:12.329780+01:00 laptop kernel: [UFW ALLOW] IN=Eddie OUT= MAC= SRC=[device IPv6] DST=[local Eddie IPv6] LEN=80 TC=40 HOPLIMIT=50 FLOWLBL=855788 PROTO=TCP SPT=42266 DPT=[port X] WINDOW=65535 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 2025-02-14T17:20:43.790702+01:00 laptop kernel: [UFW ALLOW] IN=Eddie OUT= MAC= SRC=[device IPv4] DST=[local Eddie IPv4] LEN=60 TOS=0x08 PREC=0x20 TTL=55 ID=43836 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=43944 DPT=[port X] WINDOW=65535 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 sshd is not getting the connections as the output stays listening. ❯ sudo /usr/sbin/sshd -d debug1: sshd version OpenSSH_9.6, OpenSSL 3.0.13 30 Jan 2024 debug1: private host key #0: [CENSORED] debug1: private host key #1: [CENSORED] debug1: private host key #2: [CENSORED] debug1: Set /proc/self/oom_score_adj from 200 to -1000 debug1: Bind to port [PORT X] on 0.0.0.0.

When trying the "Test open" functionality in the client area for that forwarded port, both IPv4 and IPv6 are shown as opened.

If someone knows where the problem could lay, I would greatly appreciate.

I'm wondering how to go about removing this so when I open my laptop or turn on my laptop I wont need to enter in my password every time and the program can actually auto start on boot, TIA (also I'm using Eddie)

After trying to connect to airvpn through eddie, multiple installs and re-installs as well as removing the checkmarks in the "check airvpn dns", "check if tunnel works" and "enable latency test", the best I'm able to achieve is what appears to be a connection but does not allow access to the internet. A program I use to connect to the internet, I've noticed, seems to share the "systemd" dependency, specifically "systemd-networkd". I've tried rechecking the previously unchecked boxes listed above, and eddie starts to check the latency of various servers, seems to start at least, and then freezes at 167. In the logs, I double-click to restart this check and in the 'pinger stats' row the following is displayed: 'Invalid: 167, Older check:-, Latest check: Just now (alternating between this and '1 second ago') (double-click to update). I've gone as far as stopping and restarting the network, still no luck. Attached is my log file. Using the default settings in android, I am unable to connect to the internet with eddie on, and SOMETIMES it refuses to connect at all. Either way, appearing to be connected or not, I cannot connect to the internet via airvpn. Thanks for your help. Eddie_20210328_180658.txt

Running Linux Mint 19.3 with hummingbird 1.0.2 stand-alone and sometimes through Eddie 2.19.2. I mostly connect to Japanese servers. Over the past few days, both Hummingbird and Eddie (with Hummingbird) have been entering loops that start with a keep alive timeout message, followed by a series of failed reconnection attempts. This has been happening on all four Japanese servers during a session. The only way to stop the loop is to terminate Hummingbird or Eddie and restart the connection. However, at times neither will connect to a Japanese server, and I have had to connect to a Singapore server instead. I've attached the latest terminal logs from Hummingbird 1.0.2. Any help would be appreciated. log.txt

This isn't strictly an AirVPN issue but I can't find an solution anywhere, so I'm hoping someone here can help... When opening a magnet link in Chrome (either with or without a VPN), I get the following error: "Failed to open URI "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:98b91cec54ec82ae7cde4ef129f7fec3df6b2c8b&dn=+3+x86_64+DVD&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.publicbt.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.istole.it%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.ccc.de%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.demonii.com%3A1337". The specified location is not supported." This just recently started happening in Chrome. I had a similar problem in Firefox but fixed it by adding a new about:config preference to the browser (to re-establish the default magnet handler) but I don't know how to do that in Chrome. I'm using Linux Mint 19.1. I tried removing and re-installing Chrome but that didn't work. Any ideas?

Dear All, I have recently been trying to make the move to Linux from Windows 10. I have moved over to Linux Mint Cinnamon (latest version) I have managed to get Eddie to run at startup however when I log in the program always requires a password to be entered to authenticate it and allownit to start. This is not very fluid. Is there anyway in Linux to remove this having to enter the password. I have just typed the password to login to the account and would like Eddie to start, connect to a recommended server and activate network lock without retyping the password like it does when you log into Windows. Any help from someone more proficient on the use of Linux would be much appreciated.

I've had an account with AirVPN for a while now but not been using it much. I also have an account with NordVPN and have struggled to get it working without DNS leaks. I went back to AirVPN, installed Eddie and everything worked out of the box. Fast connection speeds, quick connection to the server all good - just brilliant - many thanks!

Linux Mint says that VPN connection has been successfully established but I cant access any websites and pinging websites shows 100% packet loss.

Hello, I am trying to use linux mint 17 to connect to the airvpn services and it is giving this error when I try upload the .ovpn file from airvpn generator. The file 'AirVPN_Hong-Kong_UDP-443.ovpn' could not be read or does not contain recognized VPN connection information I tried to look on the internet but nada, support please help!
