Gluetun + Qbittorrent Setup

[Kurma]

Hello Eshtek team,

Online are many guides to set up a perfect QBittorrent, Sonar, Radar, and Lidar setup with Gluetun for maximum convenience. With the new additions to scripts, would it be possible to make an all-in-one solution so that one just has to pass one's VPN credentials at the beginning and then everything is set up?

That would be so nice to have something like that for novice user.

Hmm.  I ask this obviously not knowing what all these 'arr stack' jobs really do but if Eshtek get involved in making a torrent process bigger and better, do they take on some potential responsibility how this is used?  

[Kurma]

I would argue that adding a VPN tunnel to qBittorrent, which is already offered by Estek, makes them neither more nor less “responsible.”

[Todd Miller]

Perhaps that's true but it does not change potential involvement.  If anything, an attempt to hide the activity is even more suspicious if anyone is watching and actually cares.

We recommend only torrenting legally, that could mean Linux iso's or free domain tv and movies.

As for a vpn bundled release, we will evaluate that in the future.
For now I recommend using a socks5 compatible vpn and setting up qbittorrent with a socks5 proxy in the app settings.
