Greetings,


Over the past few weeks, I've successfully installed zoom as a template VM and as a disposable VM, using the Gdebi installer.  The template has no network connection but the dspVM has sys-whonix.  Mind you, the VMs have been updating periodically over the past few weeks as well.  Yet, I don't seem to be able to get the logs.

When I try to connect to a meeting room, it doesn't connect and at best I get a 5003 error.  I've noticed that there are proxy settings available in the login window such as:

Configure proxies to access the internet:

  • no proxy  
  • use system proxy settings
  • Manual proxy configuration:

                Http proxy:      port:

                Https Proxy:    Port:

  • Automatic proxy configuration URL

I am currently using the system proxy settings.  I've sent in reports for assistance to Zoom but haven't receive any feedback.  My firewall is to set to block as sites except zoom.us and zoom.com.

Bizarrely, I can't resolve the zoom site via a browser in the Zoom dspVM or any dispVMs.  Something doesn't seem right. 

If I didn't have to use it, I wouldn't; however, many organizations do use it and by default I have to as well.  Has this issue been observed by others in the community?  Or is there a network/connection fix that I am not aware of? 

Ultimately, i just want to use zoom with a sys-whonix network as a disposable VM so no artifacts are left on my device. 

Any assistance would be useful as I believe I am not alone with this issue. 

Thanks,
