VPN problem

Hi, new Zerops user here. I've created a Postgres service and was trying to connect from local laptop, but the VPN is failing. 
zcli version

Using config file: /home/tony/.config/zerops/.zcli.yml
zcli version v1.0.43 (go1.24.2) linux/amd64
zcli version

Using config file: /home/tony/.config/zerops/.zcli.yml
zcli version v1.0.43 (go1.24.2) linux/amd64
Then 
zcli vpn up
zcli vpn up
failed, so I tried 
sudo wg-quick up /home/tony/.config/zerops/zerops.conf

The docs say that first use of the VPN should ask to install the Zerops VPN daemon, but I didn't see that. Any ideas? Thanks

Hi Tony, seems like your systemd-resolved isn't running, try sudo systemctl enable --now systemd-resolved this should enable the unit to run at startup and also start the unit immediately. Also can you link the docs where it talks about Zerops VPN daemon?

Hi Luky Thanks for the quick response. The systemd-resolved fix worked - fantastic! Here's the docs link: https://docs.zerops.io/references/vpn#start-vpn Thanks once again Tony
