Provider details

Hi All,

I tried to let this work. I have created a custom .OVPN file at VPNunlimited portal. This OVPN file have a server specific for torrents. I mount the file as written in documents. But its unclear what to do with:

      OPENVPN_PROVIDER: custom
      OPENVPN_CONFIG: nl

Here is my compose:

version: '3.3'
services:
  transmission-openvpn:
    image: haugene/transmission-openvpn
    container_name: transmission
    hostname: transmission
    restart: always
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    volumes:
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - /volume1/data/torrents:/data:rw
      - /volume1/docker/transmission/ovpn/default.ovpn:/etc/openvpn/custom/default.ovpn

    environment:
      TZ: Europe/Amsterdam
      PUID: 1026
      PGID: 100
      OPENVPN_PROVIDER: custom
      OPENVPN_CONFIG: nl
      OPENVPN_USERNAME: username
      OPENVPN_PASSWORD: password
    ports:
       - 9091:9091

Anything else?

I don't see any problem, if using custom (should be CUSTOM per wiki) then the OPENVPN_CONFIG is ignored so you can remove that line.. are there any problems? I don't see any issue

Changed to docker compose. Now frustum.ovpn is used. As I can see it is used because after "Starting OpenVPN using config frcustom.ovpn"

But still those servers are connected to:

instead of fr.vpnunlimitedapp.com

Tried torrent with lots of seeders. Speed is great. Problem solved. Backup the docker compose for archive :)
