Web proxy configuration options

This container also contains a web-proxy server to allow you to tunnel your web-browser traffic through the same OpenVPN tunnel. The proxy used is Privoxy and is highly configurable using the built in web interface avaialble on config.privoxy.org (available once your browser is correctly configured to use the localhost:8118 HTTP Proxy). This is useful if you are using a private tracker that needs to see you login from the same IP address you are torrenting from. The default listening port is 8118. Note that only ports above 1024 can be specified as all ports below 1024 are privileged and would otherwise require root permissions to run. Remember to add a port binding for your selected (or default) port when starting the container.

Variable Function Example
WEBPROXY_ENABLED Enables the web proxy WEBPROXY_ENABLED=true
WEBPROXY_PORT Sets the listening port WEBPROXY_PORT=8118
