VPN_CONFIG_PROTECT password invalid about docker-ipsec-vpn-server HOT 2 CLOSED

@lewtopia Hello! Apple devices require .mobileconfig files to have a password when importing. The password cannot be blank. As a result, this project handles this password in the following way. There are two cases:

1. If VPN_PROTECT_CONFIG is NOT set to yes (or not set), a random password is generated to protect the .mobileconfig file, and that password is embedded in the .mobileconfig file itself. Apple devices will retrieve the password from the file automatically when importing, and will not ask the user for the password during import. In your issue description, you are probably referring to this password. It is the password used when encrypting the certificate in the file.

2. If VPN_PROTECT_CONFIG is set to yes, a random password is generated to protect the .mobileconfig files, but the password is NOT embedded in the .mobileconfig files. To retrieve the generated password, first open a Bash shell inside the container, then run cat /etc/ipsec.d/.vpnconfig. If this file does not exist, this case (2) does not apply to you, see (1) above instead.

   Note that if VPN_PROTECT_CONFIG was previously set to yes, changing it to no at a later time will not remove the password. If you want to remove the password for newly generated client configuration files, remove /etc/ipsec.d/.vpnconfig inside the container, then run sudo ikev2.sh to re-create the client configuration.

I think I found the problem: see if your mirror version is old, and if so, update it to the latest version. Because of Aliyun's image warehouse, I pulled the image from two years ago that caused the same problem as you. Today, I changed the image warehouse, and the updated version was solved.
