local net plus openvpn-client #14

I was wondering if you might have any guidance on this configuration. I'm attempting to use this docker-openvpn-client project via the unraid openvpn-client app. The issue I'm running into is I would like to serve immich thru the openvpn-client but it has a dependent service of postgres. So my desired configuration is like the below.

<- local net -> <- openvpn-client.container net -> openvpn-client <-> openvpn-server <- browser. Docker run only allows one --net on startup. I can connect a second network after startup. I'm not sure if that is the best approach. (I also don't think there is a way to automate that in unraid? I realize this question is out of scope.) Any recommendations how else to best deploy this configuration with this project?

@davew723 you could always allow the container to a subnet with ROUTE and the subnet, like described here in this example. So to speak create a new Variable in the Unraid template with the key: ROUTE and as the value the subnet that you want to give access to eg: 192.168.0.0/24 However that defeats somehow the purpose of the OpenVPN container since it has then access to your subnet.

I would recommend that you put all containers into the network from OpenVPN for simplicity and that's how I would set it up. If you are doing it that way don't forget you have to change the IPs to the containers in the config files or webui for Immich.
