Out of curiousity, are the IP Leak issues with qBittorrentvpn still a thing? Since the update was made about the ip leakage and an update to this container was released, my USG4P has been throwing DHT announce messages out once every 4 minutes. ie.

 


Threat Management Alert 1: Potential Corporate Privacy Violation. Signature ET P2P BitTorrent DHT announce_peers request. From: 192.168.1.100:20541, to: 172.98.71.202:20541, protocol: UDP

 

172.98.71.202 points to the PIA endpoint for Montreal.

 

I've also tested this with the binhex-rtorrentvpn container and do not get these logs, which to me means it's specific to this container. I'm unable to swap to rtorrentvpn however for other reasons (not relevant to this issue).

 

Prior to the update, this wasn't happening at all. If this is expected behaviour, I'll learn to live with it but every 4 minutes for over a week is a lot of log file.

 

 

So obviously there is no way i can block access to the PIA endpoint at a iptables level otherwise you would not be able to establish a tunnel in the first place, so the only options are try and bind qbittorrent to a particular interface (vpn tunnel interface) or if this doesn't fix it then simply change your logging to ignore that particular traffic type, how to bind to a interface:-

 

open qbittorrent web ui/options/advanced tab/ then change 'Network Interface' to either wg0 (wireguard) or tun0 (openvpn) click on save at the bottom to save the change and then restart the container, let me know if it stops the log messages, if so i can attempt to do this automatically.

Thanks for the reply @binhex, sorry for the delay - hectic week.

 

I've made the changes to the qbittorrent container as suggested (changed to tun0) and restarted the container. So far so good! No more P2P logs from my router.

 

I'll keep an eye on it over the weekend and see whether any more spring through, but so far this looks to be a viable workaround. Thanks!

no problems I thought this might work so I have actually coded this up and it's now fully automated in the latest image, so you do not need to manually set it anymore it's done for you

I noticed none of the containers I have routed through this one could communicate with services on LAN IPs.

 

I found the solution in A27 of the FAQ:

Adding a variable VPN_OUTPUT_PORTS with a list of port exceptions (mine are Emby and SMTP)

I didn't see this mentioned here (maybe it's new) so I thought I'd mention it.

I updated awhile ago and it broke things, so I reverted to an older version. This got qbittorrent working but sonarr etc could not connect to it for some reason even though all the settings are the same.

 

So I updated it again to see if things were fixed and first it is still not able to connect but in the logs it is trying to chown my entire media library that is stored under /data??

 

Why is it trying to change permissions on everything under /data?

 

edit: reverting to binhex/arch-qbittorrentvpn:4.3.1-1-03 got it working again but if I clear the appdata folder, it will still try to chown my entire share mapped to /data.

Hello

I have a question , but I don't know if already asked.

I made the installation, all seems to work, but I can't login from Chrome.

I try with Edge and I manage to login without a problem.

Clear the Chrome cookies etc, the same.

Anyone knows why Chrome blocks?

 

Thank you in advance

I finally for things to work with Jackett, Sonarr and Radarr, thanks to all the amazing posts in this thread. However I'm running 3 instances or LinuxServer's Sonarr and can't get things to work with instances 2 and 3. By removing the port allocation of Sonarr, it seems to default back to port 8989, which is already taken from Sonarr's 1st instance. Even if I change the WebUI port to 9090, it doesn't seems to work. If I stop instance #1 and start instance #2, instance #2 is accessible via port 8989 instead of the 9090 where it's to be expected. Anyone has an idea about what I should try?

 

Here's a part of the log of the 2nd Sonarr instance: Fatal] ConsoleApp: Address already in use. This can happen if another instance of Sonarr is already running another application is using the same port (default: 8989) or the user has insufficient permissions

 

Thanks!

Are they all using the same appdata folder?

Getting a new issue with qbittorrent.  Was working fine yesterday.  Using PIA with Wireguard.238996247_ScreenShot2021-04-02at11_30_59AM.thumb.png.6be35ddaeaa1ae2f06600676b84dd069.png

Same error here.

Hi all, new to unraid.

Got this docker setup with PIA and using a location that offers portforwarding. I can access the webui on my local internet no problem. But how do I access it remotely via an app to manage torrents away from home?

I'm using nzb360 android app and it's fantastic.  Before embracing Unraid, via windows qbittorent on the webui remote setup, I entered in my VPN port number instead of 8080.  But I can't see what my vpn port is on unraid

Right click on Categories>All in the left side menu bar and you will get a popup that will let you create a new category as well as set a save location. Example: /data/downloads/tvshows/

 

Go to Settings>Downloads. Scroll down to "Automatically add torrents from" and set a Watch folder. Example: /data/watch/

Any torrent files added to this folder will be added to downloads.

 

Remember the root of these paths must be /data/ (assuming you haven't changed the default in the container settings).

Hi there, if want to add a watch folder, it get not saved (after I hit save button). So if I the open settings and scroll down to "Automatically add torrents from", it looks like nothing changed. What am I doing wrong?
