#DELUGE BITTORRENT SYNOLOGY HOW TO#
If you get an error in log saying " Cannot open TUN/TAP dev /dev/net/tun", read the next section, if all is well, skip to " How to check if you are running inside the VPN?" I get the "ERROR: Cannot open TUN/TAP dev /dev/net/tun: No such file or directory (errno=2)" Access the qBittorrent using your NAS IP address on port 8080.Now that you have your container running, check the logs for any error and if all is well you should have the container running.You will need to make openvpn folder inside that qbittorrent folder and copy the OVPN file inside it. So, for example, let's say that you will use this location for your config volume mount: /volume1/docker/qbittorrent. Getting OVPN files from your provider will depend on the provider and also some providers use different username/password combination that’s different from your login credentials to use their service, so keep that in mind as well when filling out the configuration parameters. In that folder drop the OVPN file that you wanna use.
This is explained in the steps, but if you are not reading carefully you might miss it. The most important option here is the fact that you will need to make an openvpn folder inside your config mount point. Run the following docker run as a single line and change the settings to match your needs. Log into your NAS via SSH and elevate to rootĬreate openvpn folder inside the future /config location where you will copy your OVPN file of choice For this, I will use image.ĭownload the image from docker repository In these steps, I will explain a bit how to use qBittorrent client in a combination with a VPN provider of your choice.
#DELUGE BITTORRENT SYNOLOGY LICENSE#
If you are looking for an occasional torrent download, then maybe a docker container will be far less resource demanding, not to mention that you will not need a VDSM license (unless you have the free license still open to use). Now, this is useful if you will be using that same instance for more than just torrenting. I have written in the past how to utilize VPN on your NAS and one method of tunneling your torrent traffic via your NAS and a VPN connection is using a VDSM instance that will be protected with a VPN and in return, any other app running under that VDSM instance will be protected as well. Still, every now and then people tend to ask me how to set up docker containers, and most often is how to set up a torrent client with VPN protection. You can run it using the Portainer platform that can be configured following the article here. Those images are a combination of two containers (VPN and client) that run as a single stack. Because of that, I have added a few images on the bottom that runs fine in DSM 7 so consider running them. NOTE: With the new DSM 7 most containers that run in privileged mode will not work.
