gene-git / wg_tool Goto Github PK

New feature as requested in issue #8

Hi Gene,

In your doc you mentioned an issue with MTU size happened in a hotel. I have encountered this as well. Here is what I am reading and going to do my test:

FYI. Cheers!

Hi @gene-git,

Not sure if you have considered to add "--version" cmd option to print out:

1. the release version, build, and date info
2. git location?

Ex:

# wg-tool --version
wg-tool version 6.2 (build aabb333, 2024-01-18)
Online documentation: https://github.com/gene-git/wg_tool/

Thanks,

Jack

Currently the default working directory of wg-tool is ./, witch makes user to take care of either where the command is called or add the extra -wkd argument.

How about fixing the location of the config files? This would allow:

• to launch wg-tool from anywhere without fear of mistake
• optionally to propose the user to softlink /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf to .../wg-configs/server/wg0.conf

I'm not sure where the location could be. /etc/wireguard/wg-tool/?

Hi, I'm very new to Wireguard,

Under Archlinux, I've installed wireguard-tools and wg_tool packages. Configured nothing and launched wg-tool --init. I then get the following python error. What do I miss?

> wg-tool --init
Init Mode
Making sample server config - please edit for your setup
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/wg-tool", line 26, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/wg-tool", line 22, in main

    if wgtool.server.get_changed() :
AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'get_changed'

I dont understand why there are 2 values for hostnames. Both are "key fields to edit". Do I have to fill both? How can I determine which one of these hostname fields is used as Endpoint for the userconfigs?
In my case the Hostname_Int ends up in my userconfig Endpoint - making it impossible for me to connect to the wireguard-server.

Hello,

The ip address used by my wiregard server will have to be changed.
Modified hostname variable in /etc/wireguard/wg-tool/server/server.conf, works for all new profiles added, but does not modify existing profiles.
How can I update existing profiles with the new hostname value ?

Hi Gene,

Thank you again for making the useful wg-tool and sharing it with us! It really saves me a lot of time and brain cells to manage wg keys. I would like to share the steps I got it to work on Ubuntu 22.04. Feel free to include in your documentation to help others.

0. Assume these are already installed

$ sudo apt install wireguard qrencode

1. Install necessary python3 packages for wg_tool:

$ sudo apt install python3 python-is-python3 python3-poetry python3-build \
  python3-installer python3-qrcode python3-tomli-w python3-tomli python3-netaddr 

2. Build and install

$ git clone https://github.com/gene-git/wg_tool
$ cd wg_tool

$ sudo pip install hatchling 

$ /usr/bin/python -m build --wheel --no-isolation

$ sudo ./scripts/do-install /

3. Getting wg and wg-tool to work

$ sudo -i
# cd /etc/wireguard

# wg-tool --init

# vi config/server/server.conf

4. Add the first set of users with wg-tool

# wg-tool --add_user --dns_search Mary:mac,iphone,ipad

# ln -s wg-configs/server/wg0.conf .

# systemctl enable wg-quick@wg0
# systemctl start wg-quick@wg0
# systemctl status wg-quick@wg0

# wg show

5. Add more users

# cd /etc/wireguard
# wg-tool --add_user --dns_search Joe:mac,iphone,ipad

# systemctl reload wg-quick@wg0

# wg show

# wg-tool --list_users

# wg-tool -rrpt

Is there a way to have the clients automatically configure with IPv6? The tool seems to only generate IPv4 addresses for the clients.

Awesome work on the tool, it's so good it feels like a suite of tools that should be natively built into the protocol.

Before I start messing with my system installing all dependencies and such, is the script compatible with both Ubuntu/Debian ?

I have been looking for a decent management script and google lead me here <3
