### Crashplan's script to detect the OS and get the appropriate lib from the nlib folder doesn't always work
### so this script will download the installer and actually pull out the lib from the specified folder

# which folder should the nlib be taken from within the installer
takeNlibFromFolder=rhel8
# make sure this is the install dir of crashplan
cd /usr/local/crashplan/

Wireguard and iptables restrictions for multiple users

If you don't know what Wireguard is, well, you should. It's fast, easy to setup and highly configurable. We will configure Wireguard for multiple users with various restrictions using iptables.

Assumptions

This should fit most setups (not mine though 😉)

Download the latest ugw3 package from https://github.com/Lochnair/vyatta-wireguard/releases and install it on your USG using dpkg -i wireguard-ugw3-<version>.deb.

cd /config/auth
umask 077
mkdir wireguard
cd wireguard
wg genkey > wg_private.key
wg pubkey < wg_private.key > wg_public.key

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.
