@blazko This looks like a problem with your NetworkManager, not with nordnm. Is your user in the required groups to handle network connections?

I recently started getting an error on login attempt:

[blazko@blazko-pc ~]$ sudo nordnm -a ch p2p udp
     _   _               _ _   _ ___  ___

[ERROR] [nordnm.networkmanager.enable_connection:458] Error: Connection activation failed: Not authorized to control networking. 
[blazko@blazko-pc ~]$ 

is there any fix for this?

hi,

I receive the following error when I try to verify my credentials. I think something changed server-side:

[INFO] [nordnm.credentials]: Attempting to verify credentials... Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/nordnm", line 11, in <module> load_entry_point('nordnm==0.6.1', 'console_scripts', 'nordnm')() File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/nordnm/__main__.py", line 26, in main nordnm.NordNM() File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/nordnm/nordnm.py", line 202, in __init__ self.setup() File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/nordnm/nordnm.py", line 315, in setup self.credentials = CredentialsHandler(paths.CREDENTIALS) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/nordnm/credentials.py", line 21, in __init__ self.save_new_credentials() # Prompt for credentials File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/nordnm/credentials.py", line 68, in save_new_credentials if nordapi.verify_user_credentials(username, password): File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/nordnm/nordapi.py", line 99, in verify_user_credentials return validate_user_token(token_json, password) File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/nordnm/nordapi.py", line 80, in validate_user_token token = token_json['token'] TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable

I started getting the following error message when I run nordnm sync -u as root: "pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'nordnm==0.6.1' distribution was not found and is required by the application".

This appears to be an instance of https://github.com/Chadsr/NordVPN-NetworkManager/issues/117, although the underlying problem isn't really explained in that issue and I've not looked into it deeply.

@Chadsr I see you've already commented on not upgrading to 0.7.0 yet, but do you have this issue too?

@jgwak I haven't yet updated this repository because 0.7.0+ introduced a breaking change which I unfortunately overlooked. This AUR package will therefore stay at 0.6.1 until I get around to patching the mistake in 0.7.0+.

@Chadsr Could you please update this package? Thank you

Yes it's fixed, thanks a lot! :)

@kouros17 Should be fixed now!

I can't building because: ==> ERROR: pkgbase should not be an array

@Muffaroo - Currently you can only connect to servers that came out top in the testing of latency and server load. So a specific server can only be connected to if it has been selected as such.

In the next update, there will be an 'import' command, which can be used to import a selected .ovpn configuration file, which would therefore allow you to add any servers of your choice, whilst still being able to utilise the security/convenience benefits of nordnm.

Further down the line, I hope to merge the 'sync' and this new 'import' command for a more streamlined experience.
