I have an extra pi4 I’m mailing to my parents to create a cloud drive for their home since they’re privacy sensitive. What’s the easiest way to make the pi read/writeable from their iPhones at home?
Could look into pre-configuring something like https://github.com/ekzhang/bore

Auger: A CLI tool for making tunnels to localhost
Honestly didn't know about SSH tunnels lol. I was using https://github.com/ekzhang/bore and wanted to make an alternative with options that better suit my use case (deployed with caprover) and to learn more about networking. u/SleepingProcess made a good point that SSH may not always be available.

Modern full-featured mail server for low-maintenance self-hosted email
Wireguard itself can help you out with the task of forwarding traffic or creating an overlay network. There's also ngrok and tailscale for forwarding traffic and doing NAT traversal. Except for wireguard, these are commercial platforms, the open source alternatives I know of, are (respectively):

New users PLEASE READ THE STICKYS!! Link compilation here if you can’t find it
The Kaggle keeps failing to connect to bore.pub, and gives me the error of 'nonetype'. Is this a new thing, or is something just...wrong? I've verified my phone, the settings are correct, and I pressed that succulent triangle. It just ends up dead.

Communicating with another docker container that is networked through a VPN container
I have containers a,b,c. Container C is running Gluetun (https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun) which is a VPN container.
- Restart vpn connection (new ip) from inside the container?

How to host a docker based proxy for selected containers
One option I could find is Gluetun, which looks very popular and actively maintained. In this case we have one single point of contact with VPN provider. The other containers should be run with network_mode: service:gluetun. If I understand correctly, those container will use VPN for every network operation, even for inter-container communication. Would they be visible for the containers not attached to gluetun (e.g. the SWAG reverse proxy)?

Try setting it up. https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun See if it works for your needs.

Easy port-forwarding on linux
After some digging around, I found this project, which I think should get a lot more light on itself. It allows to setup port-forwarding on linux very easily, together with a lot of other things !

running a docker with a torrent client and vpn INSIDE the container... bad idea?
I setup Gluetun with qbittorrent in docker. Gluetun connects to the nord via manual login and I get to choose the specific servers I want it to you in its environment variables.

Gluetun killswitch
Hi guys, I have a dumb question: according to their github page, one of the features is the killswitch. It is not clear to me whether this would shutdown other containers (connected to it) when vpn drops, or only when the whole internet connection goes down
