Surfshark

[Antwelm]

I'm with Surfshark. Been a happy camper until everything broke a few months ago.
I'v tried OPENVPN_CONFIG=no-osl.prod.surfshark.com_tcp (as pr Haugene/vpn-configs-contrib-main) and downloading config file from VPN provider and pointing /etc/openvpn/custom/ at it.
I'v also tried a bunch of other things, but all to no avail. I feel silly, cause I'm sure it is all about my low knowledge of Docker (even using a GUI on Synology DSM for all this tinkering) and I'v just lost 7 hours of my life..

What am I missing, or is it Surfshark that is broken?

PS: I'v seen #2353 but it didn't help me.

Surfshark is working for me, I am using NYC however I tried the same server you are trying to use, and it worked. Could you possibly send the full command / yaml you are using to run the docker container? (Removing username and password of course)

Change "OPENVPN_OPTS" to "OPENVPN_CONFIG"

Awesome. That did it! I definitely should'v just gone to bed instead, many hours ago.

Thanks!
