Occasionally I see people mention gluetun.
- What’s gluetun? Seems like it’s a VPN client? What’s special about it?
- How do you use it in your setup?
- Do I need to know about this if I use Tailscale on the host for connecting to my VPN?
- Would gluetun allow me to use an additional VPN provider for certain apps without messing with the host Tailscale?


Isn’t that possible from within the torrent client? I use interface binding in qBittorrent and it cuts off whenever my VPN drops. Or does this not work from within the container? (My torrent client is not in a container as I’m still learning.)
I have Deluge and Gluetun in containers. Deluge relies on Gluetun and won’t do anything unless it’s running and connected.
I see. Thanks.
