Works like a charm. Thanks again!

Hello,

first of all thank you very much for the tool.

Unfortunately I have a problem. When I click the button, the VPN connects, but when I click it again it doesn't disconnect.

I took your preset and only changed the VPN name. In addition, the button color does not change when the VPN is connected.

24

Can nobody help me?

@K2DesignLab can you help me please?

26

Run this in terminal and report back what it shows while connected and not connected to VPN.

ifconfig -lu

@K2DesignLab

I found the mistake. I have entered utun6 instead of ipsec, now I can connect and disconnect VPN. But unfortunately, that's not gonna change icon. You got another tip for me?

29

Check and change the same ipsec to your utun6 on the button widget code.

Thanks thanks thanks, it works perfekt!

@K2DesignLab Unfortunately I still have a problem. For me, the value utun6 changes constantly. Sometimes it's utun6, sometimes it's utun2 or utun3. I have no clue whats the cause of this. Can you insert an either or for the values?

You're probably using a VPN like Tunnelblick or other openVPN and its not using a default or single interface. You may be able to force it to use a default interface or force it to close all interfaces before starting and after stopping. Worth a try...

33

I use a VPN from my Fritzbox. How can I force a standard interface? I'm a little overwhelmed

thanks guys, this works, I tried it with ClearVPN using utun3
