Comment on Another Gluetun appreciation post

I might not be the only one not knowing what gluetun was so here’s the repo:
VPN client in a thin Docker container for multiple VPN providers, written in Go, and using OpenVPN or Wireguard, DNS over TLS, with a few proxy servers built-in.

Thanks for that, yeah it’s kinda integral to an appreciation post, what is it exactly.
So what Gluetun has done has replaced all the messing around with VPNs for me. Rather than having a specific VM for VPN tasks running using Mullvads app, I can now run the VPN stuff in my VM that was previously just for clearnet things at the same time as those things, without the additional app.
I’ve just deleted the app and containers in the VPN VM and am repurposing it for trying out new things in Docker. Current project is Nextcloud AIO, which I’m failing at for now.

What’s your issue with NC AIO? Maybe I can help, I’ve been running it since nearly inception.

Honestly I just think it’s my general ability. I couldn’t get the Docker Compose file to work in Portainer. But in all seriousness I don’t think I need NC, I was just interested in what it offers.

I’m not sure how well docker-in-docker would work via portainer. Maybe it does, I’ve not tried it.
I would just do it from a folder you set up yourself and drop the docker-compose.yml in it, and go. If you want to share your dockercompose I can see if I notice a problem. I remember having to get over a couple issues at the time, but it’s been a while and can’t remember them offhand.
I think NC is worth setting up, but YMMV.
