I think it’s more just in general and not specifically because they need it.

Can’t you use a wildcard SSL cert for subdomains? (*.mydomain.com)


I had a problem similar to this and did not like the containers being binded to gluetun (problematic on docker daemon restarts, gluetun container being recreated, etc)
My solution was changing the gateway of each container to be routed through the tun. So first by having them both on the same internal network, then changing the entrypoint of the container I want tunneled to include the gateway change.
For example my entrypoint would be:
… && route del default && route add default gateway $GATEWAY_IP eth0
The container may be missing packages related to route so it may be necessary to modify the Dockerfile to install extra packages.
The reason the gateway must be set at the entrypoint is because docker overrides the gateway to correspond with the networking defined during container creation. And the entrypoint is the last thing executed before the container starts for realsies.
However gluetun also needs to work as a gateway which is done by modifying it’s iptables post-up rules file (at /iptables/post-rules.txt). I appended at the beginning of the file the following rules:
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o tun0 -s 172.84.0.0/24 -d 0.0.0.0/0 -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o tun0 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -i tun0 -o eth0 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
What this does is accept any traffic from the net I have my gluetun and other container in, then forwards outgoing traffic to eth0 from tun0, and vice versa for incoming.
Sorry for wall of text this is not very straight forward :(


That’s just the nature of service migration; of course for people like you who are very dependent on it, it’s not a no-brainer, but for anyone who wants to start hosting one of the two, yes it will be.
In your case yes Plex is more appropriate but at the same time the clock is ticking for Plex if they continue on this route…


I don’t know why everyone in the selfhosting community still even mentions Plex or uses it.
It’s closed source, not free; Jellyfin is a no brainer yet people still go to Plex??


Oof was looking to start selfhosting this but it has no client Linux support and has a subscription 😬😬


Made me learn about Archiveteam, thanks :D
You’re right actually it’s not native I don’t know what I’m on about 😅 Still it’s much easier to have a baked in terminal app than having to install proot on top of termux, hopefully it will have less of a performance impact than proot as well.
Just installed arch with chroot on my old rooted phone a week ago.
Seeing this is great because it means there’s no need to complicated workarounds or even root access! Plus the distro runs natively and not with difficulties like with chroot :D


How exactly does stuff get broken? Never rly had a problem bumping up the version in docker. The only issue has been the playstore version taking longer to push updates sometimes for the mobile apps.


I have a project on Forgejo and I’ve needed to set up a runner for compilation but I’ve been very confused so far on how everything works.
All I’ve been able to do is make a runner and connect it to my Forgejo instance, but I didn’t really know what to do from there.


I was having a lot of trouble keeping port forwarding stable before this change with protonvpn too. Probably the best change I’ve seen with gluetun so far!


Yes, if a port is set in the port forwarding section for the qbittorrent preferences in the webui (once one is set it stays until changed), the green globe means it’s working.


To enable port forwarding with gluetun see the port forwarding section in the gluetun wiki on their github page. It’s pretty clear what you need to do there.
For port forwarding with qbit, gluetun’s v3.40.0 release introduced an environment variable that allows the running of a script whenever the VPN changes port (see PR https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun/pull/2399). If you take a look at the PR some people shared commands to put under the env variable VPN_PORT_FORWARDING_UP_COMMAND.
So all you need to do is put that new environment variable in the environment section, take one of the example commands that uses the qbitorrent API to change the port when needed, and it should be all.
To test if port forwarding works qbittorrent will display a little green planet in the bottom bar, and if port forwarding is not working, a fire (to say it’s firewalled).
Build your own captcha, there’s just no other way to be sure it’s human traffic with prebuilt solutions :(
