Description

Using docker-compose and adding the containers to the same network as a PIA vpn container to route torrent traffic. When PIA gives out an open port for port-forwarding/rtorrent incoming connections we as users of their service do not have control over the opened port. I got to the point the forwarded port works on other services and i can output the data into a plain text file.

How would we go about getting this configured in the rtorrent container? Can I mount the /etc/rtorrent/.rtorrent.rc file into another container and have the file updated by the external one?

Expected behaviour

A way to obtain the opened port and let rtorrent access it, even on changes

Actual behaviour

defaults to default port of 50000
