I have installed the Wireguard Plug-in for OMV 7 in accordance with the Wireguard Plugin for OMV7 wiki. I created a tunnel and three clients. One client for my android phone, one client for linux mint cinnamon 21.3, and one client for windows. I have both windows and mint installed on a laptop, but primarily use mint.
Using the QR code to connect my android phone to my OMV server was successful.
I have been unsuccessful in connecting my linux mint laptop to my OMV server using wireguard. I used the client config in the OMV plugin to create a client config file ending in .conf with a text editor. However, there is no, as far as I know, way to import the .conf file generated by the OMV GUI using network settings in linux mint.
There is an option in linux mint's network settings to configure a wireguard vpn connection. Where indicated, I input the private key information and public key information, allowed ips, and endpoint from the .conf file into the dialog boxes that are activated when you attempt to create a new wireguard connection. However, when I tried to use wireguard to connect to my OMV server from outside of my home network, I was unable to access the server.
Has anyone out there been able to successfully connect to their OMV server via wireguard using linux mint? If so, could you please advise me of the steps that need to be followed to achieve a successful wireguard connection with a linux mint laptop as a client and an OMV server as interface. Thank you
