Trying to get this container to work with no luck. It is interesting that it authenticates with Nord but never connects. It dies with "Whoops! We couldn't connect you to 'us10179'. Please try again. If problem persists, contact our customer support." Anyone else have this working on Synology 7? I guess docker repository does not maintain older builds or I would check an older version. Thanks

The last entry suggests nordvpnd is not running. First step to troubleshoot is to docker run the container without any env with bash as the command. Step through manually starting the daemon, logging in, etc

Here is the log from doing what you suggest. Problem is during nord_connect. Bolded part I think is most relevant. I am not using ipv6 so not sure what is going on there...
