Having trouble with qBittorrent + Docker + PIA (OpenVPN)
Hi guys, I'm hoping someone here can help me with my problem.
I have setup a Docker qBittorrent (headless) and OpenVPN container which I use to download torrents on my home server PC.
The problem is I am having trouble getting public trackers to work. On popular torrents like GIMP and Ubuntu, it's connecting through the DHT peer search, with rarely one tracker showing up as working. On torrents that aren't so popular such as large texture files for a mod, I'm out of luck.
I have tried several things so far, such as assigning and port forwarding the port, setting it to TCP, setting the interface to tun0, changing the OpenVPN config file to NY, D.C., and NC without any luck.
This is the source for the docker: https://github.com/MarkusMcNugen/docker-qBittorrentvpn
I have slightly edited it to work on my Windows docker installation, and here's what I run:

Let me know if I'm missing something, or if I'm barking up the wrong tree and this would be better suited in the qbittorrent forums.
Thanks!
