Help setting up vpn container
Send a screenshot of your docker page with advanced view turned on. Please censor out your personal credentials. Also send a screenshot of the logs after you attempt to start the container.

You'll get the hang of it. Linux is a bitch to learn but the overhead is much less than Windows.

Help setting up vpn container
Yeah. I used the qbittorrntvpn docker from binhex. In the docker setup page there's fields for VPN_USER AND VPN_PASS. These will be taken from your NordVPN account settings. VPN_PROV will be set to "custom" and VPN_CLIENT will be set to "OpenVPN" If you're on mobile, go to NordVPN and sign in. Then click the hamburger menu in the top right. Then click NordVPN. Scroll down to where it says advanced settings and manual setup. Click setup NordVPN manually. At the top, click the menu that says "service credentials". That is your login and pass you will use in the qbittorrntvpn setup page. Then you just set the dockers you will use on the VPN to be routed through Qbittorrentvpn. For example, if I want to run Sonarr through my qbittorrntvpn, I will set the Network Type to "None" under Sonarr's settings. Then click the switch in the top right that says "basic view" and switch to advanced view. In the field that says "Extra Parameters", you will input, "--net=container:binhex-qbittorrentvpn" Do this for all containers you would like to run through your VPN. If you would then like to check for IP leaks, click the symbol for the container you would like to check, click console and open a console window for that docker. Then type "curl ifconfig.me" and press enter. It should then show the external IP address of that docker container. If that differs from your actual IP address, then everything was setup correctly. If not, then you have an issue somewhere. Do let me know if you need any more help.

Help setting up vpn container
So I'm new to unraid and linux as a whole. Coming from windows, I've gotten too comfortable with a GUI setup. My issue is that I'm trying to setup a VPN to use for torrenting and any other dockers I may need to use VPN for. I've tried using Nordlynx but could never get that working. I think I struggled the most with port mapping on that one. Then I tried using a qbittorrent docker with vpn built in, I actually got it to work this way with NordVPN ovpn files and a credentials file. But doing it this way, I'll probably hit my device limit on NordVPN? So then I tried using a OpenVPN client with the same ovpn and credentials, but I can't seem to get it to work. Something isn't working with the auth file. I tried adding the path to the auth file in the ovpn file and it still doesn't want to work. Seems to be an issue ChatGPT can't solve either lol..... Can someones please baby me through this process of setting up a VPN container with my NordVPN account, and routing like, one or two child containers through it so that I can see how it all works? I really like the UnRAID environment and how effecient it runs on my hardware so I would really hate to switch to Windows..... ***EDIT*** I'm usually really good with troubleshooting and finding solutions online, but I've hit a roadbloack on this issue, and i can't really move forward without a VPN due to privacy and security concerns. I thank anyone in advance for their help, this is a last resort before I turn to a 1-on-1 session with SpaceInvader....
