Problems?

  • AmneziaVPN actively works with iptables. To avoid possible problems, including auto-connection after reboot, you can remove the shorewall and msec packages: urpme --auto shorewall-core msec; reboot, оr disable the firewall in the Mageia control center in the section Security - Configure personal firewall (ipv4/ipv6). This decision is up to the user.
  • If the connection still does not occur, try disabling KillSwitch in the connection settings.

AmneziaVPN has been tested in MgaRemix-Proserpina (NetworkManager/nm-applet), Mageia-9-MATE (network/net_applet) and Mageia-9-Plasma (NetworkManager/nm-applet). The result is positive.
