A bash scripts that generates Wireguard configuration file for a NordVPN connection.

INSTALL

This guide assumes the use of Ubuntu. A similar install procedure will work on other distros.

Clone this project

First let's clone this project so that you'll have the script on your target Ubuntu system.

Install required packages

Install NordVPN client

Execute the following command and follow the on screen instructions:

sh <(curl -sSf https://downloads.nordcdn.com/apps/linux/install.sh)

Login to your NordVPN account

The procedure differs if you have MFA enabled on your account:

MFA is ENABLED on your account
```
nordvpn login
```
This will return a URL link.
Open the link on any browser, on any machine and perform the login.
Cancel out of the Open with popup, and copy the link that is assigned to the Continue link, under the message saying You've successfully logged in.

Back to the terminal
```
nordvpn login --callback "<The link you copied>"
```
And it will log you in.
MFA is NOT ENABLED on your account

Use legacy username and password to login.

Note: This will NOT work if you have Multi Factor Authentication enabled. (See above for the MFA method)
```
nordvpn login --legacy
```

Change protocol to NordLynx

After a successful login, please set NordVPN to use NordLynx protocol.

sudo nordvpn set technology nordlynx
