From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ohhh, I think I understand now, they can't connect to jellyfin because that computer has the VPN on. I thought their question was turning on a VPN to connect to Jellyfin outside their house.
Then yea split tunneling would be a good solution. Set up so only the torrent application uses the VPN. Or that Jellyfin is excluded from the tunnel.
Unfortunately I'm not too up to date on VPNs and which offer that. Perhaps their network equipment could apply the VPN to only the torrent traffic, and then they match the port number used inside the torrent application's settings?
