your guide has at least one error, you have to allow udp port 10000-20000 in your firewall for it to work probably!

also i dont think that it is a good idea (!!), even or especially in a crises where everyone is in a hurry, to suggest someone to download and use a configuration file from the internet without reviewing them, it may be easier in the first but admin needs to know what is configured (and best why) so please describe the changes in the config you have made step by step so everyone can comprehend them!

thanks

If you read the tutorial it is explicitly written the instruction to open port 10000/udp.
For the changes, in the tutorial I have linked the sources where the changes are explained,
since they are taken from the official documentation and just put together in this tutorial,
Also the configuration files are listed on github available for inspection from anyone.
And finally your are very much free not to use the tutorial :)
