Had a read of this thread, but can't quite figure it out (linux noob).

Can someone point me towards the simplest way to update PMS?

My google-fu is clearly not up to spec

I have however tried many things that I did find.

Including switching ip address range (limited to 192.168.x.x unfortunately due to a dog**** isp provided router). Lots of google responses pointed at local and VPN network IP conflicts.

I have done a fresh install of librelec and ran the OVPN file from command line and it still fails, I have other providers that work, and others that do the same thing. I have tried identical OVPN file on iOS on the same network and it works fine.

I suspect that the difference on Libreelec is related to TAP/TUP, but we are getting into specifics of OpenVPN not VPN Manager.

I have sorted a trial out for IBVPN which is working, so I might just have to put my hand in my pocket and stump up for a year, a shame as ghostpath is provided free with another service I pay for.

I suspect this is a client issue. But if anyone could point me in the right direction that would be much appreciated? (same client OVPN as my post above)

Code

ip route add 0.0.0.0/0 via 10.10.8.25
ip: RTNETLINK answers: File exists
ERROR: Linux route add command failed: external program exited with error status: 2

I don't have server admin permissions.

Have tried manually deleting/adding the route manually.

I appreciate this isn't one of the selected pre-programmed VPN providers, and I have contacted the provider for assistance, same file works ok on my iPhone OpenVPN app.

Any thoughts on this? Supplier seems to think it's something to do with multiple interfaces.

I am using my NUC wired (was previously WIFI), I have disabled the wifi interface, but it's not made any difference.

Thanks, it's a little move obvious once you actually run it, as you can see it rattling through the add-on data.

Can anyone confirm if addon's and their settings are kept by the backup?

I did look at the wiki, but wasn't clear on the answer.

Create System and Kodi Backup:

Create a tar archive containing all LibreELEC and Kodi configuration settings, databases and thumbnail content. Backup files will be stored in /storage/backups.

I will give it try, thanks

Recently acquired a new VPN, from GhostPath, unfortunately when I import the ovpn file I get the error "Killall conflicts with ping"

Will grab the full log later if this isn't enough Thanks

I did read that, and have set the addon to use first, with VPN not automatically turned on.

The problem I am having is the VPN doesn't disconnect when existing that addon.

I am reading 03. Connection Filtering · Zomboided/service.vpn.manager Wiki · GitHub but can't see what I am looking for.

Is there a way to run VPN for a single Add-On?

VPN up and running fine and can add exceptions to other add-ons/windows.

Essentially would like VPN off for everything except one Add-on.

Is there a set of instructions to install this? Had a look through the post and couldn't find anything (or is it as straight forward as opening the zip file?)
