  Free vps in oracle cloud with Pangolin

  If I’m not mistaken I tried setting up pangolin to work along side my already running Traefik setup and it was just an absolute nightmare.

  I just don’t have the time nor energy to reinvent my already running configuration.

    I’ve set it up next to my NPM and it’s more complicated, but so much more capable. Traefik is what it uses to proxy things. You’re comparing a full suite of tools with just one piece.

      Traefik is what it uses to proxy things. You’re comparing a full suite of tools with just one piece.

      I mean, that’s debatable. Taking a look at their docker-compose.yml there are 3 containers they recommend running, with a 4 optional container.

      • image: docker.io/fosrl/pangolin:latest # Pangolin itself
      • image: docker.io/fosrl/gerbil:latest # WireGuard server
      • image: docker.io/traefik:v3.6 # Traefik Reverse Proxy
      • hhftechnology/middleware-manager:latest # Optional middleware manager for Traefik

      To say this is a “full-suite” is a bit much when majority of the heavy lifting is done by Traefik, the middleware’s you assign to Traefik and WireGuard. Pangolin if I’m reading this correctly;

      “Pangolin combines reverse proxy and VPN capabilities into one platform.”

      Which is great! However as I mentioned previously, does not integrate well when these services are already setup to work standalone.

        Pangolin uses gerbil with newt for those wireguard tunnels. That’s a massive improvement already. It also adds a bunch more features like vpn, you can crowdsec, and more that I don’t use. To say it’s debatable if it’s a suite of tools is just wrong.
