-==== Raspi 4 - installation of NetworkManager (for conveniance) ====
-If you have multiple VPN connections (university/work), you'd appreciate if you could either could automatically connect to one of the VPNs or just use a few clicks to select one.
-For me the way was installing NetworkManager on my Raspi4, which required me to change config files.
-Before you perform the following steps, make sure you have your WLAN password, you will need to enter it again in NetworkManager!
-  - Installation of required packages (open console) <code>sudo apt install network-manager network-manager-gnome openvpn openvpn-systemd-resolved network-manager-openvpn network-manager-openvpn-gnome</code>
-  - Not 100% sure if you really need to perform this <code>sudo apt purge openresolv dhcpcd5</code>
-  - This one is essential! <code>sudo vi /etc/nsswitch.conf</code> Instead of "vi" you can use "nano".
-  - Navigate with to the line beginning with "hosts" and move (or insert and delete) the entry "dns" to second place <code>hosts: files dns mdns4...</code>
-  - Restart computer <code>reboot</code>
-After reboot you will see a new icon appearing in the panel (where the clock is). Right click on the old WLAN icon - remove it; all networks will be managed my NetworkManager from now on.
