Well, it would be good to.... Stop firewalld, dump the IPTables, start the VPN daemon, wait a bit, and dump the IPTables again. Also, it would be helpful to actually name the commercial VPN which may warn others about the pitfall. But, it is good to know it is fixed. And yes, the lesson is "list things you've installed that aren't part of the normal distribution". The other thing that I'd question would be: If you'd made no changes why then did the problem arise? Did a change in some Fedora component become "incompatible" with the VPN daemon? -- Right: I dislike the default color scheme Wrong: What idiot picked the default color scheme _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
