I’ve followed the guide but when opening Tor browser there’s no connection at all.
“sudo systemctl status openvpn@openvpn” gives me the following result, the closest thing to an error that I could find in all the commands. Does this look right?
user@host:~$ sudo systemctl status openvpn@openvpn
[sudo] password for user:

“Is Whonix currently configured to use a second tunnel-link/proxy or bridge?” No.
