Openvpn and Nord

Guys I hate to open an old thread but using the instructions I have been able to set up the connection, I am however having a little issue. Here's the Log @

Now that looks like its failing on the user and password. I can log into Nord using the credentials I have keyed into the password.conf file, has anyone seen this ?

Im a tad confused ...

Any help would be very much appreciated

Not sure if this helps u mate. Have a look at my thread below. I use vpn manager with nord. Only downside is that it is very bandwidth hungry. I’m on 65 to 70 mb down and 18 mb up when the vpn is off. Turn it on and it drops to 12 mb down and 6 mb up. But have a look anyway matey.

No secret
For those struggling to set up openvpn on their VU+ box, this guide may be useful.
1. Go to the client support pages of NordVPN site and download the OpenVPN Configuration Files (Default)
2. From the zip file we need any ovpn file
3. Edit the name of the ovpn file to client.conf.
4. Open the client.conf and modify the line "auth-user-pass" so it reads "auth-user-pass password.conf" (without the quotes)
5. Create a password.conf file
6. Add the info to the password.conf file so the username and password are on separate lines.
7. Place all 2 files (client.conf, password.conf) into the openvpn folder on your box (etc/openvpn)
8. Reboot your vu+
9. Start the service from the settings - network - openvpn
10. ssh to your vu+ and check the ip with this command wget -qO- http://ipecho.net/plain;echo
This should do the trick.

read #2 we thought we were the only 2, I was gutted i had gone with Nord (im happy now) because everyone was with vanish or pia vpn
that wouldnt post a .conf file.
i spent about 40hrs on this between STELLA'S over the last couple of days and wasn't 100% it was there the above guide wasn't mine to post.

LOL forgive my punctuation been having a stella celebrating

Hello.
I tried the above with IpVanish & VIX 5.4.001 on my Octagon SF8008 but couldn't get it to work.
When I press Green in OpenVpn I get a vix logo turns once or twice in top left of screen but current status is still stopped.
RED (Remove service, Yellow (Autostart) & Blue (Show log) buttons all work ?
Also what is the reason for No10 above ?
Thanks.
Regards.

No. 10 is just a test to show your external ip. If the vpn service is working then it will be different to that assigned by your isp

I ran Ipchecker on my receiver & it gave me the same Ip address as when I ran no10 above using Putty.

With ipvanish you need to add the security certificate file as this is referenced in the server file rather than being included. It’s called something like ca.ipvanish.crt
