dagrha / pypia Goto Github PK

I can't find this package at https://pypi.python.org.

Could you please upload it there? Installing via PIP is the standard way to distribute Python packages, and makes tracking versions and performing upgrades seamless. Installing via git repo is horribly inconvenient.

Hi,

I'm wondering if you could help me figure out how to get the VPN to re-connect automatically on boot

I'm on Fedora 30 headless with nmtui. Installed using pypia very basic (no flags, thought I was just testing but it worked so I ran with it).

I'm asking here because I'm confused, pypia didn't install .conf files I would expect for openvpn in /etc/openvpn/client

Thank you for the help and the great user-friendly script

PIA are upgrading their network and the majority of servers no longer work with pypia, especially initialise doesn't work. See https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/helpdesk/news/posts/decommissioning-of-legacy-network. I think the generation of network manager files needs to be updated to support nextgen.

improve the IP column alignments in the Latencies repr method

This is repo is awesome and on top of that your documentation was perfect as well!

I wished I found it 6 hours ago!

I would click on your affiliate link, but I already had PIA, let me know if you want me to click on anything else!

Thanks again,

Chad

I know I'm breaking github protocol, but oh well

Right now the password to connect to the PIA VPN is stored in the configuration files. Even though the file is pretty well protected since it is only readable by root, this is not ideal in terms of security. At the very least I'd like to add the option to not store the password, which would require entering your password every time a VPN connection is initiated.

Ideally we'd use Keyring or Wallet to handle passwords, but since this script aims to be cross-platform with minimal dependencies, that approach would be tricky.

There was no way to send you a message to thank you for creating these scripts! I just installed openSUSE Leap 42.2 XFCE and the script was absolutely flawless!

I know this isn't an issue so please delete if it isn't wanted on the page.

Thanks again!

The script had an extra " -s " in the password line. This would cause the prompt to "jump" to the error stating that no password was entered after one typed in the username. Below it is written just as how the first lines are for the username, without the " -s " .

read_user_passwd( )
{
echo -n "Please enter your PIA password. This gets added to your VPN config files: "
read PASSWD
if [ -z $PASSWD ]; then
error "A password must be provided for the installation to proceed"
fi
}

Hi
When I use pypia -i, I get this:

Yes, we exist. And since the default installer doesn't support portage I think it would be awesome to have support for gentoo

To the random_pia.py script, add an option that selects the route with the lowest current latency, which would be performed on the fly. Maybe ping each endpoint, tabulate results, and connect to the fastest.

Each connection has in brackets Client update needed when going via NetworkManager

Have tried several, none connect.

I noticed some DNS leaking when using the keyfiles generated by pypia. To attempt to fix it I hardcoded the PIA DNS servers (dns=209.222.18.222;209.222.18.218;) into the keyfiles (https://github.com/dagrha/pypia/blob/master/pypia/pypia.py#L177), turned off OS assigned DNS (with ignore-auto-dns=True), and disabled ipv6 (https://github.com/dagrha/pypia/blob/master/pypia/pypia.py#L178).

Not really an issue, never really touched github so I don't really know where to put suggestions, It would be fantastic if you were to implement a killswitch, or just straight away reconnecting when I log back in after being away for a while. But a killswitch would be amazing if you would be willing to, again sorry If I posted in the wrong place.

Is this because suse leap 15 is not supported ?

Playing with Ubuntu Gnome today and installed pypia but command cannot be found (from shell):

pypia: command not found

The issue is related to an OS bug where ~/.local/bin is not in the PATH for the user. Of course it would be best to just add ~/.local/bin to PATH but the quick workaround would be to execute as follows:
$ ~/.local/bin/pypia -i

Another alternative would be to get pypia.py from github and run:
$ python3 pypia.py -i

That's it, just though I would help others from stumbling on this.

Hello dagrha
First, thanks a lot for creating this program/script. It's VERY useful and I managed to install PIA VPN on Debian 9 Stretch, using your script.
At first, however, the script wouldn't run because sudo isn't installed on Debian 9 and I am not going to install sudo. As a workaround, I deleted all occurrences of sudo in your script and managed to get it working.
My suggestion is to change the script so it'll run on computers without sudo.
//Saltani

Whenever I try to run a script, terminal outputs the following:

./install_lubuntu.sh: 6: ./install_lubuntu.sh: Syntax error: newline unexpected

Here is the output from the terminal:

[REDACTED]@[REDACTED]:~/Downloads/PIA_install_scripts-master$ sudo sh install_ubuntu.sh
[sudo] password for [REDACTED]: 
Python already installed
Package network-manager-openvpn already installed
Please enter your PIA login: [REDACTED]
Please enter your PIA password. This gets added to your VPN config files: install_ubuntu.sh: 61: read: Illegal option -s
A password must be provided for the installation to proceed
[REDACTED]@[REDACTED]:~/Downloads/PIA_install_scripts-master$

Seems like I'm only able to ping and list the US servers and not the rest?

Hello, not too long ago you added ArchLabs for me. The maintainer of that distro has branched off and created ArchMerge which I am now using. Aside from adding the new name, the rest should be the same as ArchLabs was.
Thanks!

Add support for Solus operating system

Greetings,

I had pypia working prefectly on 16.10, but the upgrade to 17.10 seems to have messed up my configurations.

Just to complicate thing I'm running the python command thru PHP. I know crazy right? (long story)

    echo exec('ls', $out);
    echo exec('pwd', $out);
    echo exec('python3 pypia/pypia.py -s -r us  2>&1', $out);
    var_dump($out);```

So this command worked just fine in 16.10, but upgrading to 17.10, I might have missed a configuration. Obviously the command `python3 pypia/pypia.py -s -r us` works just fine from the command line. But when I access the php file from a web browser I get the following

`{ [0]=> string(11) "LICENSE.txt" [1]=> string(9) "README.md" [2]=> string(14) "legacy_scripts" [3]=> string(5) "pypia" [4]=> string(8) "setup.py" [5]=> string(7) "test.sh" [6]=> string(19) "/var/www/html/pypia" [7]=> string(88) "Connection 'PIA - US East' deactivation failed: Not authorized to deactivate connections" [8]=> string(74) "Error: Connection activation failed: Not authorized to control networking." [9]=> string(30) "Disconnecting PIA - US East..." [10]=> string(30) "Activating PIA - US Midwest..." } ` 

I suspect it's because the user "www-data" does not have access to control networking? This might be outside the scope of the code, cause it deals more with network configurations?

Thanks 

I have a fresh install of Manjaro 17.0 KDE and your script worked flawlessly to populate the connections in the network manager. However, any connection I click on says "connecting" for a couple seconds and then stops and goes back to listed as "never used". I'm not getting any pop up error messages at all. Hoping you can help me troubleshoot this. I'm not terribly experienced, but follow direction well! Let me know if you need more info. Thanks.
John

Wasn't sure exactly where to submit this request, so I hope this is ok. In reference to your requested information:

1. networkmanager-openvpn
2. pacman install or packer install
3. (I couldn't follow your instructions, but the distribution is archlabs)
   This is the error I get currently:
   Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "pypia.py", line 240, in
   install_packages(package_dict)
   File "pypia.py", line 84, in install_packages
   required_packages = package_dict['required_packages'][distro]
   KeyError: 'archlabs'

Default now is SHA-1 hashing and AES-128 cipher. 128 bit AES is probably enough but it would be nice to have the option of 256.

The package network-manager-openvpn-gnome is missing.

Otherwise the error message Could not find vpn plugin service for 'org.freedesktop.networkmanager.openvpn' is being displayed and the connection fails.

Hello dagrha,

It would be most appreciated by me and (hopefully) other users that you add an uninstall option to pypia when installing via manual method (git clone method). If not, add maybe an uninstall guide in the README.

Much appreciated,
Mohamad

It would be useful to add a feature to check if PIA is connected and which location is connected to.
I don't think this exists.
