Add a way to port forward the incoming port when using PIA (Private Internet Access) #31

Open ncareau opened 4 years ago

ncareau commented 4 years ago

Added an environment variable to enable a script that fetch a random port assigned by private internet server for a port forward. This port is then used in the qbittorrent app as the INCOMING_PORT.

Why do you need this? Is it because you can't talk to the UI if using OpenVPN? Because if that's the reason you just have to set LAN_NETWORK to the correct CIDR.

ncareau commented 4 years ago

This is not for the UI. This is to port forward a public port for seeding the torrents privately. I have since switched to https://hub.docker.com/r/binhex/arch-delugevpn/ which support this feature and many more.

Interesting. I'm going to check that out. Thanks.
