That makes total sense. I never really considered that I have been learning Windows over the past 20 years. It was just learning “computer”. And I really appreciate the compliment to my dedication on it! I’m really happy with the result and I learned more about linux/networking/LePotato/Pi-hole than I would have guessed at the beginning of this whole project. From battling with Wireguard server configuration…ufw and portforwarding…client configuration…back to ufw…IP configuration…keys…etc. Troubleshooting was a maze sometimes 😂. One more thing before I go.
About the name thing. Say I type:
name="Gerald"
wg genkey > ${name}.key
Would my output then be a key generated by Wireguard and named “Gerald.key”? Or would it need to be:
wg genkey > "${name}.key"
Or like in your example:
wg genkey > $name.key
I think I’m mostly getting caught up in when the quotations are necessary and when they’re not.
Wow! You absolutely know what you’re talking about! You did an amazing job clearing that up for me. I’ll save this comment in case I need to come back to it. Thank you!

I think Lemmy stripped the $ from your bash commands?
