    What do you have programmed into Host Path 1 variable in your container settings (should be where /config is located).

    up untill now i have not been able to locate the /config folder in portainer, which i ofcourse need to copy the VPN files to.

    I have looked around for a reference to host path also but to no avail.

     

    i would really appreciate so more help on this.

     

    Kind regards

  2. any other / better dashboard i can use / you prefer? do keep in mind i am limited to a small amount of apps that is supported by ADM OS.

     

    Within Portainer, there is a container section, bu i only have Deluge and PortainerCE in there.

    DelugeVPN i have ONLY pulled in, so it is under images, but there, there is still a notification "unused". and i think i can not use it till i have this solved, right?

     

    Please see screenshots.

  3. @chesh:

     

    thanks for your reply, i tried looking for that info in Portainer.io but did find no reference to anything named host path (1 or other)

    am i looking at the wrong spot? (again)

     

    sorry for all this trouble, i feel the closer i seem to get the less i know and understand.

  4. oke i thought i was ready but now i am running against the issue of actually finding the /config/openvpn/ folder.

     

    i assumed it should be located in the root of the ADM (linux based os of my NAS)

    there i did indeed find a .config folder of course, but there is no openvpn folder in there.

    i tried stopping at all (every container in portainer-ce), but then all that hapend is that my router would reboot.

    afterwards there is still no openvpn folder in .config/ so i started to think i should look for it somewhere else, higher up in the file tree.

    So i found in the Docker/Deluge folder a /Config, but also without openvpn folder.

     

    Al i can think of now is that i should still look for a different location so i tried 'locate openvpn'

    or i didn't force the creation of the folder in the right way yet.

     

    any thoughts on the above?

  5. Hey BinHex and averyone else,

     

    I am completely new to the whole docker concept so i am trying to learn.

    For the obvious reason i was pointed towards arch-delugevpn to have deluge running on a nas where i want all the other apps running not behind a vpn. 

    To understand what to do i read through the following info:

     

    https://hub.docker.com/r/binhex/arch-delugevpn

     

    but reading through this i am left with a few questions.

    for now i am running Docker-se 2.0 (19.03.8.r5) on ADM (3.5.2.RAG2) on a Asustor as6102 nas with portainer CE (2.0.0.r01)

    i have pulled arch-delugevpn correctly but haven't run it yet (as i'm not sure if i correctly know how). As i dont' wanna mess things up on the NAS i just wanna double check if my train of thought is indeed correct. 

     

    so reading through the above link i noticed there is often refered to use with PIA.

    Do i assume correctly when i assume PIA stand for private internet access and is a VPN that does use a (similar to) openVPN protocol?

    ifso.. i understand i should not use the PIA guidelines as i use surfshark VPN but should still follow the first general usage protocol the text starts with and just adapt that so it is correct for usage with surfsharks openVPN setting and place the unzipped files openvpn config and cert files in the /config/openvpn/ folder? and run the adepted general usage protocol?

     

    additionally i found several discussions on adaptations of the copenvpn config file. but i believe this only relates to usage with the next gen pia vpn. is that correct? should i just use the files as supplied by surfshark or should i make some adaptations to is?

     

    I hope i am not asking to much obvious questions here, as i said i am really new to this and a bit anxious to mess things up.

     

    Thanks ahead for the support! Kind greatings
