Hey there!

I know Yunohost is perfectly fine for beginners while being limiting to advanced users. I think I am somewhere in the middle. Right now, I hope you maybe have some advice for me on how you could set something like this up:

Yunohost has Sonarr, Lidarr and Prowlarr installed and configured. Inside these, there are working connections to a qBittorrent client.

Disclaimer: for legal reasons I want to use a VPN for torrenting purposes. In Germany, seeding is what can get you in big trouble, so I’ll just say I want to use a VPN to protect my privacy. Not because I want to torrent copyrighted material of course.

This whole *arr apps in Yunohost in connection with a qBittorrent client, also installed via yunohost, works very well, but I don’t know/can’t figure out how to setup a VPN together with it. When just add my Mullvad wireguard config, my whole setup goes behind the VPN obviously, so my Immich and Nextcloud will also be gone for my other apps while in the VPN. I would like to be able to just put the qBittorrent in a vpn, but couldn’t figure out how. In a next step, I uninstalled the qBittorrent client and started it as a docker container to connect gluetun to it as a network interface. Both services started fine using the recommended docker-compose files and so on. But qBittorrent wouldn’t connect to any trackers, I think they were blocked or something.

Anyways, does anyone have any recommendations on where to go from here or how to maybe setup this whole thing in a different way? For now, Yunohost is very comfortable for me since I don’t have much free time for this project and it lets me make a lot of progress fast. So completely switching away from it might be too big of a hurdle, so for now I’d probably just give up on the *arr stack magic, I don’t know.

Thanks for reading and happy hosting.
