How to use WireGuard

The container will fail to boot if VPN_ENABLED is set and there is no valid .conf file present in the /config/wireguard directory. Drop a .conf file from your VPN provider into /config/wireguard and start the container again. The file must have the name wg0.conf.

How to use OpenVPN

The container will fail to boot if VPN_ENABLED is set and there is no valid .ovpn file present in the /config/openvpn directory. Drop a .ovpn file from your VPN provider into /config/openvpn and start the container again. You may need to edit the ovpn configuration file to load your VPN credentials from a file by setting auth-user-pass.

Note: The script will use the first ovpn file it finds in the /config/openvpn directory. Adding multiple ovpn files will not start multiple VPN connections.

Example auth-user-pass option for .ovpn files

auth-user-pass credentials.conf

Example credentials.conf

username
password

PUID/PGID

User ID (PUID) and Group ID (PGID) can be found by issuing the following command for the user you want to run the container as:

id <username>

Issues
