I was just trying to get openvpn working on my TW WSL image and it failed on the fact that the group nobody is missing. I've checked and user nobody is missing as well. lkocman@DESKTOP-DESO8KI:/etc/openvpn> sudo openvpn --config heroes.conf.UDP [sudo] password for root: Thu Sep 10 11:54:38 2020 OpenVPN 2.4.8 aarch64-suse-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [LZ4] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] [MH/PKTINFO] [AEAD] built on Oct 30 2019 Thu Sep 10 11:54:38 2020 library versions: OpenSSL 1.1.1g 21 Apr 2020, LZO 2.10 Enter Auth Username:lkocman Enter Auth Password: Thu Sep 10 11:54:46 2020 NOTE: the current --script-security setting may allow this configuration to call user-defined scripts Thu Sep 10 11:54:46 2020 failed to find GID for group nobody Thu Sep 10 11:54:46 2020 Exiting due to fatal error lkocman@DESKTOP-DESO8KI:/etc/openvpn> groupadd nobody I think we should add it to make it more convenient for users so they can get most of it.
