Hello,
I have a problem where I can successfully add a magnet link but no peers connect. I'm using OpenVPN through Private Internet access. I can add torrent files and they add and download no problem but the magnet links won't start connecting to peers. I stopped VPN readded the magnet link and it works. What could be causing magnet links to not work when connected through VPN?
Thanks.

Re: Deluge Magnet Links & VPN
Are you forwarding internet traffic through your private VPN server?bookedirl wrote:Hello,

Can you show me the /etc/openvpn/server.conf and your client connection file (hide any personal info and unified keys).
If you find our project or support useful, then we’d really appreciate it if you’d consider contributing to the project however you can.

Re: Deluge Magnet Links & VPN
I don't have a server.conf this was a self install openvpn and it was installed prior to v100.
Here's the contents of /etc/openvpn
Here's the the config file where open vpn connects to.
Would it be worth doing the install through dietpi? Does the integrated install offer any connection redundancy if the VPN were to drop for whatever reason it reconnects?

Re: Deluge Magnet Links & VPN
It may be in one of the following files:bookedirl wrote:I don't have a server.conf this was a self install openvpn and it was installed prior to v100.
USEast.conf
USNYC.conf
A reconnect method must be completed at the client end, regardless of DietPi OpenVPN installation or not. Whether thats a .bat script, system service that monitors the state, or additional software.Would it be worth doing the install through dietpi?

Re: Deluge Magnet Links & VPN
Yea that's what I posted above for the config file. I still have the same issue do you see any settings that may seem off in the conf file? Is there another spot I might need to check?It may be in one of the following files:
USEast.conf
USNYC.conf
I'll look into the reconnect issue separately.
Re: Deluge Magnet Links & VPN
The file you posted is the client file. Its a bit messy, however, you can compare your files with what DietPi uses:bookedirl wrote:Yea that's what I posted above for the config file.

As your VPN server is not on a DietPi system (http://privateinternetaccess.com), i am unable to offer you further support.
I would suggest you contact your VPN provider http://privateinternetaccess.com for support.
