Running a Torrent Box with Transmission and a VPN











up vote

I have tried looking around a lot to find some answers around this topic. My end goal is to run Ubuntu Server on a Hyper-V VM. I want to be able to port forward my ssh ability and also port forward the Transmission GUI but want everything else ran through a VPN. I want all of my torrents to be downloaded only while connected to the VPN. I would also like for the VM to be able to download the files straight to my file server. I am using PIA for my VPN. So I guess I have multiple questions in one.




  1. How do I connect my VM to my PIA VM?

  2. How do I set up a kill switch for it?

  3. How do I allow the Transmission port and the SSH port out on my local ext IP

  4. How do I allow this VM to work with my file server?


My end goal is to be able to download all my torrents safely with a VPN but also want to be able to connect to the Transmission GUI and SSH remotely, then have all of this download to my NAS. Is this at all possible or am I dreaming?

          How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

          Image
          3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question ...

          Can I use Tabulator js library in my java Spring + Thymeleaf project?

          Image
          0 I want to add Tabulator js to my java project. I added tabulator.min.js, tabulator.min.css to resources folder. After that added to my html page these dependencies as recommending in readme.md. <link rel="stylesheet" th:href="@{/css/tabulator.min.css}"> <script type="text/javascript" th:src="@{/js/tabulator.min.js}"></script> Now my tables view all elements, that I have in the html page, but not correct. In the documentation of Tabulator is example how to create header and table, var table = new Tabulator("#example-table", { columns:[ {title:"Name", field:"name", sorter:"string", width:200, editor:true}, {title:"Age", field:"age", sorter:"...
