So you connect to an external VPN service but then what is not working? You are not reaching your webservices, hosted on the device?
Also not from local network?
Please provide some more info.
After setting up the vpn, I am not able to access any of the other services I installed EXCEPT transmission. Even stuff I setup in a docker is not accessible. I am on a local network. Im able to ssh into the pi just fine but any other service is not responding. Even though in the dietpi-services they all show as active.
The point of the killswitch is to reject any traffic which doesn’t go through the tunnel, to prevent leaks. It is not the most elegant way, but it is considered the most secure.
