echo -e "<dict>\n   <key>organization</key>\n   <string>your-team-name</string>\n</dict>
" > /var/lib/cloudflare-warp/mdm.xml

# Add cloudflare gpg key
curl -fsSL https://pkg.cloudflareclient.com/pubkey.gpg | sudo gpg --yes --dearmor --output /usr/share/keyrings/cloudflare-warp-archive-keyring.gpg

# Add this repo to your apt repositories
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cloudflare-warp-archive-keyring.gpg] https://pkg.cloudflareclient.com/ $(lsb_release -cs) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cloudflare-client.list

# Install
sudo apt-get -y update && sudo apt-get -y install cloudflare-warp
