πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
openvpn3-admin netcfg-service [OPTIONS]
openvpn3-admin netcfg-service -h | --help
π DESCRIPTION π
Okay so this? This is the management interface for the openvpn3-service-netcfg service, and that service's D-Bus name is net.openvpn.v3.netcfg. That's the whole vibe. You're basically the manager walking into the netcfg service's little office and going "hi, we need to talk about your config". π«Ά
β¨ OPTIONS β¨
-h,--helpβ prints the usage and the help details straight to your terminal, no cap π--config-showβ shows you what's inside the configuration file thatopenvpn3-service-netcfg(8)is using. Just peekin π--config-setβ changes a setting in that config file. Important though, babe: once you change the configuration file, theopenvpn3-service-netcfg(8)process has to be restarted before those changes actually become active. It does not hot-reload, she needs a lil nap and a fresh start π
This option needs two arguments: CONFIG-NAME and CONFIG-VALUE. The valid *CONFIG-NAME*s are:
log-levelβ sets the default log-level thatopenvpn3-service-netcfg(8)uses when it starts up. Valid values are integers between0and6. Numbers only, gorgeous πlog-fileβ sets where the log events actually get sent. Go look at the--log-fileoption in the man page foropenvpn3-service-netcfg(8)for the deets.idle-exitβ sets the automatic idle shut down time-out. Again, check the--idle-exitoption in the man page foropenvpn3-service-netcfg(8)for the deets. She logs off when nobody's paying her attention, iconic honestly π¦resolv-confβ decides whichresolv.conffile gets used for DNS resolver configuration. See the--resolv-confoption in the man page foropenvpn3-service-netcfg(8)for the details.systemd-resolvedβ configures the DNS resolver configuration to usesystemd-resolved(8). See the--systemd-resolvedoption in the man page foropenvpn3-service-netcfg(8)for details. And btw, to actually activate this feature, the CONFIG-VALUE must be1oryes. That's the whole thing, no in-between πredirect-methodβ configures which host route/redirect method gets used to reach the VPN server when--redirect-gatewayis used. See the--redirect-methodoption in the man page foropenvpn3-service-netcfg(8)for details. The valid *CONFIG-VALUE*s are:host-route,bind-deviceornone. Pick one bestie, those are the options βset-somarkβ configures the NetfilterSO_MARKvalue used for OpenVPN traffic. See the--redirect-methodoption in the man page foropenvpn3-service-netcfg(8)for details. (Yes, that's what it says, we're not questioning it π₯)
--config-unsetβ basically--config-setbut make it subtract. It removes a setting from the configuration file instead of changing one. Deleting era π--list-subscribersβ lists every service that's been granted a subscription toNetworkChangesignals, plus exactly which change types they asked to be notified about. These signals get sent every single time a virtual network adapter is created, modified or destroyed β DNS changes included. The group chat of network events, fr fr π--unsubscribeDBUS-UNIQUE-NAME β forcefully unsubscribes a service from receivingNetworkChangesignals. Kinda rude but sometimes necessary π The argument must be the unique D-Bus name (typically:1.xxxxwhere x denotes an integer). Yes,:1.then some digits. That format only, please and thank you π
