gacpac 6 Posted December 1, 2018 I'm getting some problems with the Transmission VPN. currently I have it with PIA and it works fine. But I cannot get the docker openvpn-as to access the transmission remotely. I noticed that If I turn off the transmission the vpn connects right away. And if I connect remotely and then start the transmission it works. I even added this. Also I remember this wasn't like this before. Because I used PIA before. Share this post Link to post
clowrym 6 Posted December 4, 2018 (edited) Sorry for the late reply.. its been a busy couple weeks at work!! There seems to be an issue with adding multiple local networks in the cell you have above, I tried the same originally when I first made this template. I ended up adding a script to user scripts plugin that runs on server boot & that I run if I force a restart/update on Transmission. I have listed it below.... I know its a work around, but I havent figured out how to allow multiple networks in the docker template..... I use the script below for access loutside of my local network thru the VPN I have set up for my work computer / phone when I am not on ly local network. adjust the ip addresses to suit your network setup!! #!/bin/bash echo adding 10.1.0.0/25 LAN_NETWORK docker exec Transmission_VPN /bin/sh -c "/sbin/ip r a 10.1.0.0/24 via 172.17.0.1 dev eth0" echo Netowrk added exit Edited December 4, 2018 by clowrym Share this post Link to post

Actually, I was able to make it see my other networks. To me still doesn't make sense because I keep using the server IP plus the port but. I had to add manually there the virtual network and the vpn network to access the torrent. Now Something that really bugs my mind and I don't know why is. Currently I have the OpenVPN-as docker container setup with UDP using port 9443, forwarded through my router. Works perfect. But when I have the Transmission docker running, My OpenVPN doesn't connect using UDP. I currently have it running on TCP. If Transmission for PIA is using OpenVPN Port 1198, why is it blocking my connection for my own VPN. Share this post Link to post

danger781 0 Posted January 6 (edited) I've just installed transmission-openvpn docker and got it running with NordVPN. I do not recommend anyone to use NordVPN as they do not support port forwarding so my speeds are abysmal. They are refusing to issue me with a refund for the unused subscription time as I no longer need Nord. Anyway, onto why I'm here.. I've noticed two plain text files in this config folder containing the credentials for Transmission and the credentials for my NordVPN account. They are named: openvpn-credentials.txt transmission-credentials.txt This seems like a pretty serious security vulnerability? Password should never be stored in plain text... 🤨 Edited January 6 by danger781 Share this post Link to post

danger781 0 Posted January 6 Yeah that repo writes the credentials out to a plain text file in start.sh for openvpn: # add OpenVPN user/pass if [[ "${OPENVPN_USERNAME}" == "**None**" ]] || [[ "${OPENVPN_PASSWORD}" == "**None**" ]] ; then if [[ ! -f /config/openvpn-credentials.txt ]] ; then echo "OpenVPN credentials not set. Exiting." exit 1 fi echo "Found existing OPENVPN credentials..." else echo "Setting OPENVPN credentials..." mkdir -p /config echo "${OPENVPN_USERNAME}" > /config/openvpn-credentials.txt echo "${OPENVPN_PASSWORD}" >> /config/openvpn-credentials.txt chmod 600 /config/openvpn-credentials.txt fi I have no idea why though. It doesn't seem to get referenced again after that *.txt is initially created. Baffling! Share this post Link to post

At the same time, I've also verified all traffic is being tunneled through NordVPN (they only see my VPN IP). 13 hours ago, danger781 said: Anyway, onto why I'm here..

Password should never be stored in plain text... 🤨 Due to the nature of how these programs work, how else would you store them? The applications must know what the passwords are to submit the services you're subscribed to. If you encrypt it, the application has no method to extract it to submit the credential to the service on every startup of the container. Best thing to do is to make sure such files are only readable for the application that needs it. Share this post Link to post
Hendricks 0 Posted February 8 (edited) Hi all, I'm having trouble getting the Transmission docker up and running. The log shows the following error: Got new port 59595 from PIA transmission auth required localhost:9091/transmission/rpc/ responded: "success" Checking port...Error: portTested: http error 0: No Response Reading through the thread it looks to be the same DNS issue reported on P.2. It's probably very simple but I don't know how to add the DNS flag, any pointers would be appreciated.

Hendricks 0 Posted February 9 Thanks Clowrym, i thought it had to be something fairly simple. The log now shows that the port is open, however the GUI doesn't come up...any thoughts? STARTING TRANSMISSION CONFIGURING PORT FORWARDING Transmission startup script complete. Wait for tunnel to be fully initialized and PIA is ready to give us a port Fri Feb 8 17:29:13 2019 Initialization Sequence Completed Generating new client id for PIA Got new port 21613 from PIA transmission auth required localhost:9091/transmission/rpc/ responded: "success" Checking port...

clowrym 6 Posted February 9 DId you add your local network properly? ie. 192.168.1.0/24 or whatever local network your using? Also, are you trying to access it from within your network? If not then you have to add whatever network's you want to access it from. Share this post Link to post
gacpac 6 Posted February 9 DId you add your local network properly? ie. 192.168.1.0/24 or whatever local network your using? Also, are you trying to access it from within your network? If not then you have to add whatever network's you want to access it from.This is exactly the problem you are getting. Remember the containers run in a virtual network, if you cinnect via VPN or whatever network. You have to add it to the options for the container as well.
