Hi! I’ve the Nordvpn installed on my EX2 (by SSH), but If I restart the WD I need to reinstall the Nord VPN!
Is there a way to avoid this problem? Thank you!

Hi centimerix,
Sorry to inform you that Nordvpn is not supported by WD My Cloud EX2.
Do you have any apps installed, e.g. phpMyAdmin, entware or transmission?
If yes, look up the init script
find /shares/Volume_1/Nas_Prog -maxdepth 2 -name init.sh
Put all the required steps to set up NordVPN in a script.
Then modify one of the init script you found earlier to run this script.
Done.
If you share the modifications you used to setup NordVPN, I may provide more details.
EDIT: I quickly looked it up. Based on this tutorial
Download the ovpn file of your choice.
Copy it to the directory containing the init script
Add a credentials file to the same directory with these 2 lines
myusername
mypassword
Edit your ovpn file and link to this file
auth-user-pass /shares/Volume_1/Nas_Prog/transmission/credentials
APPDIR="$(dirname $0)"
openvpn.bin ${APPDIR}/wherever.nordvpn.com.udp1194.ovpn &
Thank you!
I’ve installed Transmission. I usually do this to install NordVPN:
Please note that I’m not an expert… so I found the directory you wrote above… and then? :))
Thanks again!
I’ve updated my previous post. I don’t have actual credentials, but I think this should do…
Thank for your help.
I found one init.sh only (in the Transmission directory)…
It doesn’t work :((
Hello,
And you can access to your NAS remotely after that ? because nord vpn did not support port redirection,
Thank you
Posting here in case anyone has a solution to the NordVPN connection being wiped after a reboot?
