Hi there. I see you're facing some connection issues after setting everything up. The main issue seems to be related to the domain name used in your WireGuard configuration. It appears the old domain name from when you deleted it is still active, which might be causing the problem. You can try clearing or resetting the WireGuard settings to remove any residual data. If you need guidance on how to do that safely, just let me know!

Sure, I'll try running PivPNP setup once more.

Yep, got it working now. My problem was that I ran the setup the first time with a different domain name... and when I was getting errors for some unknown reason I got frustrated and dumped the domain I have no idea why I was getting errors though, that's still a mystery... I was inputting/copying the text and changing the relevant parts. I did come across one really weird one though, I used sudo nano to edit the duck.sh file echo url="https://www.duckdns.org/update?domains=exampledomain&token=a7c4d0ad-114e-40ef-ba1d-d217904a50f2&ip=" | curl -k -o ~/duckdns/duck.log -K - but when I checked it again after getting errors it had left out the "echo" part, so I kept getting errors when running ./duck.sh That was very infuriating, and was the main problem I had, and as I'm not very fluent in linux it was not clear what the problem was. That's why I ended up changing the domain, as I thought that was the problem... and then it caused more problems instead of less. Anyway, lesson learned! and at least I got a little more useful with linux in general I guess, LOL So I just ran curl command again to setup the server again. and this time it went without a hitch. ----- I must say that it's actually easier doing a wireguard setup than openvpn, especially as you can just send your clients the qr code if needed. I'm about to do exactly that... they do need to have a phone to read the qr code, and something to read the qr code from though, so not useful for everyone. I can just send a public key if needed though.
