some PIA scripts

PIA

PIA Client installation on Ubuntu system with encrypted home folder (ecryptfs)

For an older clients, e.g. client 66 and there is no need to do something else except to move PIA to the new destination /usr/local/bin/pia instead of root folder to be more comply to the Linux Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. Please try this script and then run PIA as usual via green icon. Make it executable by command:

chmod +x pia_ecryptfs.sh

and run as root:

sudo ./pia_ecryptfs.sh

pia's Issues

error on run

pia/split_tunnel_VPN.sh

Line 158 in 02b3743

echo Add rule, which will block vpn user’s access to Internet (except the loopback device).

gives an error on script run:```

Flush current iptables rules
./split_tunnel_VPN.sh: line 158: syntax error near unexpected token (' ./split_tunnel_VPN.sh: line 158: echo Add rule, which will block vpn user’s access to Internet (except the loopback device). '

I removed the parens and the error disappeared.

a few other problems

Just noticed that the iptables.sh file that the script generates doesn't have any of the variables showing up in it.

for example, line 16 looks like this:
iptables -t mangle -A OUTPUT ! --dest -m owner --uid-owner -j MARK --set-mark 0x1
notice the absence of a uid-owner.

Also, /etc/sysctl.d/9999-vpn.conf doesn't have the third line changed from eth0 (as you mentioned in your instructions).

/etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf needed to manually edited as per your article.
