    You can add one to the docker compose file and then route other containers (especially qbittorrent) through it by setting network-mode. Read about it here: https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-wireguard

  • Wireguard on host or in Docker container?
    4 projects | /r/docker | 28 Mar 2023
    FWIW there is https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-wireguard/tree/alpine, which does just that really. It's a little more complicated because it still supports all the peer config envs, etc. but it's much smaller than the normal image because it doesn't have support for compiling and enabling the kernel module.

  • What best NextCloud Setup on a budget?
    3 projects | /r/NextCloud | 4 Feb 2023
    To expose Nexcloud to the Intenet you would also need to deploy a reverse proxy in a container (for example Nginx Proxy Manager). If you don't need Nextcloud to be publicly available, you can deploy a VPN server (Wireguard) to securely access your local network from anywhere.

    Then, to access it (and other services) remotely, you have 2 options: host a VPN (I advise https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-wireguard) and access unsecured services from it (most secure, but a little inconvenient), or host a reverse-proxy (i advise https://nginxproxymanager.com/guide/#quick-setup, it is the simplest way to get started). Lastly, forward a port from your router to the VPN or Nginx, and that's it.
