I am having an issue trying to get these scripts to work in my 
cloned-sys-firewall qube.  I have got the two qubes communicating between 
each other using the scripts here  
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/firewall/#enabling-networking-between-two-qubes 
but I am not able to get the Offline Windows section to work properly.  I 
am getting the following error in my WorkVM Terminal "failed to connect to 
"

I inputed the first three lines in /rw/config/qubes-firewall-user-script 
and I inputed the 2 last iptables lines in /rw/config/rc.local in my 
cloned-sys-firewall qube and obviously changing my IP addresses.  Any ideas 
as to why its not connecting?

I did some research and found this 
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/4792.

I have bypassed the Issue by manually installing those items in dom0 using 
"sudo dnf install".

I have also just had the same issue when I downloaded a fresh copy of 
debian-10-min from testing.  It downloaded but wouldnt install.  I had to 
manually install the template using the line above.

[qubes-users] New Install of Qubes OS 4.0.2 RC1 Dom0 Doesnt Update

2019-07-13 Thread alexw8913
Hey, I have just Updated my System to Qubes OS 4.0.2 RC1 and the Install went 
very Smoothly.  Actually didnt have a single Error/Issue with the Install.  
This is also using UEFI.  I am using a Lenova X1 carbon Gen 6 laptop.

The Issue I am having is that When I try and update Dom0 in the Terminal using 
"sudo qubes-dom0-update"  I am getting this.

Fedora 25 - x86_64 - Updates
Fedora 25 - x86_64
Qubes Dom0 Repository (updates)
determining the fastest mirror (15 hosts)..done..
Qubes Templates repo138%

Last metadata expiration check:
Dependencies resolved.

Reinstalling:

qubes-release   noarch 4.0-8  qubes-dom0-current
qubes-release-notes noarch 4.0-8  qubes-dom0-current

It downloads these updates and then says:

Complete!
The downloaded packages were saved in cashe until the next successful 
transaction.

After I restart the computer this just keeps repeating.  Is there a way to fix 
this?

I am also noticing that when I start Qubes OS I am getting this during the boot 
process "Failed to start Load Kernel Modules" but it continues to boot up with 
no other issues.

wouldnt this way be User -> TOR -> VPN -> Internet?  Sorry if it was a bit 
confusing my explanation of the setup. maybe this is better explained.

whonix-ws -->Whonix-gw>sys-vm-->sys-firewall
Internet  VPN 


Internet(NETVM=vpn-sys-whonix)>vpn-sys-whonix(NETVM=sys-vm)->sys-vm 
(NETVM=sys-firewall)

Yes I can switch over to debian and see if that fixes the problem aswell.

[qubes-users] VPN before Tor setup using Whonix help

2019-05-13 Thread alexw8913
Hello, I am trying to achieve this: User -> VPN -> Tor -> Internet

This is my setup in qubes:

fedora-29-vpn (templatevm- has openvpn installed)

VPN-appvm (has openvpn running in it.  It is using fedora-29-vpn 
template)--> vpn-sys-whonix(ProxyVM based on whonix-gw-14 template and its 
NETVM is VPN-appVM-->Internet AppVM(based on template whonix-ws-14.  Its 
NETVM is set as vpn-sys-whonix).

I have been following this guide 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/vpn/#set-up-a-proxyvm-as-a-vpn-gateway-using-iptables-and-cli-scripts
 when I was setting up VPN-appvm which I followed to a tee and completed 
without too much trouble.

The Issue is,  I have DNS leaks by doing some online DNS checks with VPN-appvm. 
 Any Idea why/how to possibly fix this.

I am having the same Issue with the Popups for Authentication between VM's.  I 
am running Qubes 4.0.1 fully updated and I have typed in this line in 
/etc/qubes-rpc/policy/qubes.Gpg

$work-email  $work-gpg  allow

After this step Thunderbird doesnt see my gpg-key in work-gpg at all.  It seen 
it before I typed that line in fine Other then the Auth popups.  So I have went 
Back a step and re-did this in my Work-email terminal

[user@work-email ~]$ export QUBES_GPG_DOMAIN=work-gpg
[user@work-email ~]$ gpg -K
[user@work-email ~]$ qubes-gpg-client -K
Request refused


I am getting this error "Request refused".  It works fine leaving the qrexec 
policies as 

$anyvm  $anyvm  ask 

Any ideas on why this could be happening?

what procedures did you have to follow to get qubes installed with UEFI?  I 
have the same laptop lenovo thinkpad X1 Carbon gen 6 and after using rufus with 
'DD' it installs fine but after it restarts, it seams to load up the system 
files but goes to a black screen right after.  just before you type in your

I have flashed to the most recent bios 1.34.  I have USB UEFI BIOS Support

[qubes-users] Changing USB Controllers

2018-10-07 Thread alexw8913
Hello, I have qubes (r4.0) installed on a USB.  I have 3 USB Controllers on my 
laptop.  When I am running qubes and try attaching a USB device,  it always 
uses the same USB Controller(the usb qubes is installed/dom0) regardless of the 
USB port I am using.

Is there a way to switch this?  I wanted to try and create a USB qube just for 
untrusted usb devices.  I know I cant use the one dom0 is on but I have two 
more controllers I would like to utilize if possible for this.

[qubes-users] Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: qubes-dom0-current error

Hey, I am running qubes 4.0 and When I try to update Dom0 in the Terminal with 
"sudo qubes-dom0-update" I get this error: Using sys-whonix as UpdateVM to 
download updates for Dom0; this may take some time...  Cannot retrieve

verify its path and try again.

I have Whonix-gw-14 and whonix-ws-14 installed and fully updated.  I also have 
debian-9 updates working with no errors.

I have Fedora-28 installed also but when I try and update that I get this 
Error: Failed to synchronize cashe for repo 'qubes-vm-r4.0-current'

I am relatively new to qubes so I am learning as I go.  I have did some 
research on these issues and I havnt found a solution to my exact issue yet.  I 
am hoping I dont have to reinstall Qubes unless I have too.

I was trying to update my onion addresses from V2 to V3 when I came across this

[qubes-users] Installation freezes on SSD

2018-05-12 Thread alexw8913
Hey I am having an issue installing qubes 4.0 on my external SSD (Samsung 1TB 
SSD T5).  Qubes installes fine with my flash drive that the qubes image is on.  
When it askes me to restart the computer after installation I do and boots up 
fine to the template configuration area.  Now when I am configuring the 
templates it freezes on me and shows a black cursor.  The mouse also stops 
working and no keyboards inputs work anymore.  I have left this for about 8 
hours and is still there.  I have to power off the computer for it to stop.

I have also installed this on my flash drive before this to test it out and
