Trying to install either Mullvad or IPVanish VPN

General Help
1

Hi there.
I have decided to leave the Window world and use Zorin 17.2

Before I started I checked to see if either Mullvad or IPVanish VPNs were available to run on Zorin and from what I could see they were so made the change.

I can’t get access to the info for IPVanish and their support don’t answer my requests.
Mullvad has answered and I now have the instructions below.

However I type these into Terminal I get an error.
Sorry I am new to this, not sure if I have to start a new line where they do or continue typing, tried several ways and not getting anywhere.

Any help would be greatly appreciate.

# Download the Mullvad signing key
sudo curl -fsSLo /usr/share/keyrings/mullvad-keyring.asc https://repository.mullvad.net/deb/mullvad-keyring.asc

# Add the Mullvad repository server to apt
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/mullvad-keyring.asc arch=$( dpkg --print-architecture )] https://repository.mullvad.net/deb/stable $(lsb_release -cs) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mullvad.list

# Install the package
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mullvad-vpn

I see the instructions you were given, but what error are you receiving? We need to know that to know why the instructions aren't working.

Edit: As for new lines/continue typing, ignore the lines that start with a pound sign/hash mark. Otherwise, each line is a single command.

Thank you so much for getting back to me.
I just tried another way by just copying and pasting into terminal and it worked.
Now up and running :blush:

That is actually what You should do with that. The first Command adds the Signing Key for the Mullvad Repo, the 2nd Command adds the Repo itself and the last one's refreshing the sources so that the new one can be used and then it will be installed.
