Are there any good docker containers that have an openvpn + qbittorrent configuration setup in such a way that the torrents won’t run if the vpn isn’t running?

Yes, it can only affect the network of the container
Ah interesting. Might be worth looking into the saltbox someone posted above. I currently use a seedbox service
I run wireguard in one container (as a client connected to Mullvad), and then qBittorent in another container but using the network of the wireguard container.
Then I just set up routing rules in wireguard to allow my local network to be exempted from the tunnel so I can reach the web interface of qBittorent.
All my torrent traffic goes over the VPN, I can still reach the webui and none of my other containers are affected. Super simple and very reliable.
I have my qbittorrent behind Gluetun and port forward the web interface port through Gluetun
version: "3" services: gluetun: image: qmcgaw/gluetun container_name: qbittorrent_vpn cap_add: - NET_ADMIN environment: - VPN_SERVICE_PROVIDER= - VPN_TYPE=wireguard - WIREGUARD_PRIVATE_KEY== - WIREGUARD_ADDRESSES= - SERVER_COUNTRIES= - TZ=Europe/Prague ports: - 8080:8080 - 6881:6881 - 6881:6881/udp restart: unless-stopped networks: - traefik qbittorrent: image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest container_name: qbittorrent environment: - TZ=Europe/Prague - WEBUI_PORT=8080 volumes: - /docker/containers/qbittorrent/config:/config - /docker/containers/qbittorrent/downloads:/downloads restart: unless-stopped network_mode: "service:gluetun" networks: traefik: external: true
Very nice! This is basically exactly what I’m doing except I’m doing it in ansible and using the linuxserver/wireguard container.
I went with Gluetun because they work with either OVPN or Wireguard (depends on what you configure in compose) and I have already used it through Truecharts
