Is this thread related to an earlier one where questions were posted about setting up vpn in bookworm which uses conman?

networkmanager is easy to work with if you have it.

@Governor

Can you make it so the current proton connection will automatically close when choosing a new connection?

Try this:
VPN-CONNECT2a.sh.gz

Very nice indeed. Thanks!

For those who like to know where the vpn is connected to(from) without using a browser,
use this in a console:

Code: Select all

curl -s https://ipinfo.io/$(curl -s https://ipinfo.io/ip) | grep city | cut -c 10-

I also use this in conky.

Quick and dirty, something like this will work.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

curl -s https://ipinfo.io/$(curl -s https://ipinfo.io/ip) | grep city | cut -c 10- > /tmp/city.txt

xmessage -center -bg orange -fg black -file /tmp/city.txt
