PiVPN doesn't depend on a VPN server

But I still think this is a bit of a DietPi issue.

nope

@urostor

Because, if you install Wireguard using dietpi-software, and then PiVPN, two wireguard tunnels are generated, sharing the same port

nope, PiVPN is goring to remove the DietPi configuration, as it is creating it’s own Wiregard server config file wg0.conf. This ia a behaviour of PiVPN.

@urostor

if I understand correctly?

There is a missunderstanding still

@urostor

It is not clear that to use Wireguard through PiVPN, you need to install it through apt separately

If Wireguard is not installed via PiVPN, PiVPN will not generate or use any Wiregard configuration, as it will use OpenVPN.

I did a test installation on my NanoPi R5S and I got ask by the PiVPN installer to select between Wiregiard and OpenVPN. Means PiVPN is offering both if all conditions (wg kernel module) are met.
