Using country code won't change the server #174

Closed Ansem93 closed 1 week ago

Describe the bug

I looked for the country ID using this link: https://api.nordvpn.com/v1/servers/countries After I added the code ID I tried to use https://whatismyipaddress.com/ to check if I actually changed nation but I didn't In my case I choose Croatia and so I added the ID 54

Expected behavior

After adding the ID code I expect that it would choose a server from that nation

Additional context

If it's not possible to choose the country like that it should be updated the readme with the correct way to select a country/server

I second that. Setting the environment variable

CONNECT=some_country

isn't working either. I had a dig around a bit and found some renaming of environment variables. they didn't have any effect either. Forcing a specific IP, which I got from above mentioned API, won't work, it reports a port error.

Actually, building the container from this repository, everything works as expected. I had to

chmod -R 700 etc/

before

docker build -t bubuntux/nordlynx .

Also, I tested it with a newer version (3.20) of the base image (the used 3.17 is deprecated) and it seems to work fine if you add iptables to the install list.

I reckon the current branch never made it to the Docker Hub.

In the end I just switched container and moved to tmknight88/nordvpn since it's based on the official linux client
