I was running this on a Debian install. import os import subprocess import re import time print("start monitor vpn monitor check") expected_IP: "0.0.0.0" # ENTER YOUR EXPECTED PUBLIC IPv4 ADDRESS HERE current_IP: subprocess.check_output("dig +short myip.opendns.com @resolver1.opendns.com", shell=True) try: while True: if expected_IP in str(current_IP): print("IPs Match - Things are normal") else: print("Current IP: " + str(current_IP) + "\nIP NOT AS EXPECTED!") #Code to complete actions called here time.sleep(60) # Change this timer to reduce/increase time between checks (seconds) except KeyboardInterrupt: print("\nHard Exit Initiated.
