### FAQ:
> Why do I get this missing cipher error message below:
`2024-10-11 20:51:59 DEPRECATED OPTION: --cipher set to 'AES-128-CBC' but missing in --data-ciphers (AES-256-GCM:AES-128-GCM:CHACHA20-POLY1305). OpenVPN ignores --cipher for cipher negotiations.
2024-10-11 20:51:59 Note: Kernel support for ovpn-dco missing, disabling data channel offload.
2024-10-11 20:51:59 OpenVPN 2.6.9 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [LZ4] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [MH/PKTINFO] [AEAD] [DCO]
2024-10-11 20:51:59 library versions: OpenSSL 3.2.2-dev , LZO 2.10
2024-10-11 20:51:59 DCO version: N/A
2024-10-11 20:51:59 WARNING: No server certificate verification method has been enabled. See http://openvpn.net/howto.html#mitm for more info.
`
VPNGate and autovpn2 client works with OpenVPN 2.4 cipher ['AES-128-CBC'](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YhjYiK5RFTU1fJgGe5rV_LoOr8b3fkaX/view?usp=sharing)
The Fix is to fallback from 2.6.x to 2.4.x :(
> Why do I sometimes get **`[autovpn2] rewriting config file`** stuck in a loop when I use country code JP?
The parser got a bad or corrupt config file for said country from the servers CSV List.
You can also use the [vpngate-x86_64.AppImage](https://github.com/ruped24/autovpn2/releases/tag/v1.0) utility to fetch the list of connectable countries.
> The default USA (**US** [:us:](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States)) servers seems to be slow to me, which country is the fastest?
In "my" seat-of-the-pants testing, Japan (**JP** [:jp:](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan)) or Korea Republic (**KR** [:kr:](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Korea)) servers seem to be "faster".
> Can I change the default country code?
Yes, you can change the default [ISO 3166-2](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2) standard code in the script.
Change Line [21](https://github.com/ruped24/autovpn2/blob/80782a993fafc99a2b8eb67861f15bf654cef594/autovpn2.py#L21) and
Line [45](https://github.com/ruped24/autovpn2/blob/80782a993fafc99a2b8eb67861f15bf654cef594/autovpn2.py#L45) to the country code (Uppercase) of your choice.
> How can I get a list of Connetable countries without goinng to [vpngate.net](https://www.vpngate.net/en/) website.
You can use the [vpngate-x86_64.AppImage](https://github.com/ruped24/autovpn2/releases/tag/v1.0) utility to go fetch the connectable list of countries.
> How to fix my DNS leak?
Pick one of these free and public [DNS](https://www.lifewire.com/free-and-public-dns-servers-2626062) Servers.
> This is a technical question, WHY Python 2.7???! It's [EOL](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0373/#maintenance-releases) dude! :confused:
Haha, The truth is, I didn't want to fight (_choosing my battles_;) with [Python3](https://www.pythonconverter.com/)'s bytes to string conversions for this [_one-off_](http://www.wtfpl.net) script.
Personally, I compile my legacy Python 2.7 standalone scripts to a Linux ELF 64-bit LSB executable using [Nuitka](https://nuitka.net/doc/user-manual.html) and [Appimagekit](https://appimage.org).
The created binary executes independent of a Python installation.
A [precompiled x86_64 autovpn2 binary](https://github.com/ruped24/autovpn2/releases/tag/v1.0) can be found under releases.
> What's with the name and the "2"?
I wrote this as a drop in replacement for the original [autovpn](https://en.kali.tools/?p=418) written in [Go](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_(programming_language)), that's now in Github's [Digital Haven](https://github.com/adtac/autovpn).
The "2" is to not conflict with the original script if installed on said system.
```diff
- Note: autovpn2 defaults to the US servers. The Japan or Korea (JP, KR) servers are preferred.
```
