Qbittorrent is my favorite client but there are a couple of great alternatives like Transmission or Deluge.
Can confirm Transmission and Deluge are both solid
since you seem familiar with those clients, do you know if either or both of those have a network interface bind feature like qbittorrent? (if not familar, qbit lets you pick which interface your vpn uses and only torrent on that one - which is damn handy if your vpn drops)
i used to use deluge back in the day (years ago) but ended up switching to qbit after i got a dcma when my vpn dropped. i've since improved my setup and safeguards a lot but was wondering if it ever got a similar feature.
They don't. I use Deluge inside a Docker container and route that container's networking through another container running Gluetun. This way all traffic flowing to and from the Deluge container necessarily goes through my VPN, not counting the couple of ports exposed outside the container so that the web UI works.
So, not a Deluge feature, but I enjoy how much control the more modular setup gets me.
Interesting. I'm still on a VM setup and still need to migrate everything over to using docker (or podman). I had made an attempt a year or so back but wanted to run all my containers without root and whatever one I was using as a template at the time had been expecting the opposite. Then life caught up with me and I ran out of time on that project
But good to know about Gluetun. Maybe I'll revisit the migration to containers at some point if I get the free time.
Sure, that makes sense. Honestly, IMO you should use whatever stack works well and is convenient for you to keep updated. If it's stupid but it works, it isn't stupid.
It's actually an old windows VM and definitely not convenient, more it's just that I know I've tested the fuck out of it and it's rock-solid in terms of not leaking ips or whatnot. I've been wanting to migrate it to be pure linux for some time but part of the complexity is porting my old firewall rules.. linux firewalls don't see process paths for the most part so I pretty much need to handle things in a much different way. I could probably throw together a Linux VM with iptables-based rules without too much trouble but I guess I just figured skipping past VMs entirely and going directly to containers was better but that ended up being more time- and research-intensive than I had originally expected (apparently i suck at containers lol)
