Maybe possible to use with tcp VPN configurations?

I don’t know how that’s related. (Can’t do UDP<->TCP conversions.)
Who wrote Tunnels/Connecting to Tor before a VPN: Difference between revisions - Whonix?
‘’‘1.’‘’ Clone the whonix-gw-14 TemplateVM and name the new clone <code>whonix-gw-14-vpn</code>. For instructions on cloning Qubes-Whonix TemplateVMs, See: [[#Multiple_Qubes-Whonix_TemplateVMs| Multiple Qubes-Whonix TemplateVMs]]
I don’t see how this is needed.
‘’‘2.’‘’ Create a new Whonix-GateWay ProxyVM based on the newly cloned template. Name this VM VPN-Gateway and set the Whonix-Gateway TemplateBasedProxyVM (commonly called <code>sys-whonix</code>) as NetVM. Make sure to check [
] the box for provides_network.
Why would a separate VPN-Gatway be based on Whonix-Gateway?

Since stream isolation is disabled i thought i would be possible to use.
That was me. Got VPN-Gateway and Whonix-Gateway a little mixed up in my head.
I"ll fix.
Edit:
Would likely degrade anonymity. Some kind of:
User -> Tor -> Tor -> VPN -> Internet
If that would even work.

What would be interesting though is a VPN-Gateway based on
Although unlikely to make major progress anytime soon.

Figure this will be helpful i.e. save us a little time.
Let me know if its OK and I’ll add to the VPN wiki pages.

It’s great!
Small note: Frequently Asked Questions - Whonix ™ FAQ was supposed to be only for anonymity/privacy/security concerns such as 70 signatures not checked due to missing keys. So I can stop spending time on explaining technical details to and calming non-contributors thereby stalling development.
If users don’t apply Free Support Principle; or otherwise expect higher efforts from us than they’re investing; or experience other issues perhaps even legitimate bugs… If we don’t want to answer there… Not sure… Perhaps just not answer. Or a different FAQ link.
Free Support Principle was one major step in time management for the user support side. Frequently Asked Questions - Whonix ™ FAQ was another major step in time management for the development side. I wonder why I didn’t get the idea earlier. If you see other steps that can be taken to improve time management please let me know.

Probably 85% of the answers I’ve given I find by using the forum/wiki search engine. It not that difficult. Non replies are definitely in order for users that are constantly asking for support but put zero effort into finding their own answers imo.
This will come in handy.
No problem. I was thinking about cleaning up Free Support Princuple a little bit. (Not replacing content, just organizational) And perhaps add a few more links to offsite documentation.

No problem, the simpler the wiki is the more users we will have. It can be a steep learning curve.
Can someone please add a parameter for the signing key link [0] so I can redirect KVM users to this link instead: Whonix ™ for KVM

Could you please clarify:
-
The current “Verify the images using the Signing Key” on that page would only then be for VirtualBox (using Patrick’s key)?
-
The KVM images can only be verified using your key i.e. not Patrick’s
So I would change the current “Verify the images using the Singing Key” to something like:
VirtualBox users should Verify the images using this Signing Key
KVM […]

Yes and yes. I could make the signing key statement longer but it might make the table look unsightly and confuse users. That’s why I think a template parameter I can change to my link is better.

Made those changes to the DownloadTable. Let me know if you need anything else.
You may want to tweak it a little?

The edits that were previously made to ( https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Template:DownloadTable ) broke the table.
Looks like this edit (or another recent one) broke some of the download links?
I’ll see if I can fix it.
Edit: Ok looks like the variables are not yet defined. Have to wait until then I guess?

https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Template:DownloadTable works for me. Not directly but all pages using it (listed here: Login required - Whonix).
For example Whonix ™ for VirtualBox with Xfce (fully functional) sets variables and calls Template:VirtualBox - Whonix which can calls https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Template:DownloadTable.
Whonix ™ for KVM calls https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Template:DownloadTable directly. Also functional.

So when I hit Download (v3 onion)
Ok, I was referring to ‘directly’ so this is not a problem.
