[Swlug] WIreguard VPN Networking Issue

[Morgan Green]

Hi,

I bit of an update, the main cause of the issues were:
1. I forgot to point it to a DNS server.
2. I forgot to enter the private keys correctly.

I also used a shell script on Github to help make the process. Also, please make sure you type every command on it's on own or at least audit to see if you understand what's going on: https://github.com/afify/wireguard-openbsd.

Kind regards,
Morgan Green

I've used OpenVPN on several Ubuntu and Raspberry Pi machines from laptops and phones for different members of my family with great ease. I've never managed to get Wireguard to work. Ever. It shouldn't be that hard!

I'll be following this thread with interest!

Hi,
Is anyone here good at networking, I having issues with configuring a self-hosted VPN for remote server access running on OpenBSD, the server side Wireguard config, seems to been running fine. But when I run the client conf on both a Debian Optiplex Server for this startup company I helping out with and a Ubuntu VM I spun up for testing purposes. I tried reading the Wireguard, OpenBSD documents, a few reddit posts with a similar video and a youtube, yet none of the fixes. But I have also attached my server config just in case. I have also censored some information such as the Keys and the Endpoint address for privacy reasons.

Kind regards,
Morgan Green
