This Docker includes OpenVPN and WireGuard to ensure a secure and private connection to the Internet, including use of iptables to prevent IP leakage when the tunnel is down. It also includes Privoxy to allow unfiltered access to index sites, to use Privoxy please point your application at `http://<host ip>:8118`.

**IMPORTANT**<br/>
## IMPORTANT
Please note 'VPN_INPUT_PORTS' is **NOT** to define the incoming port for the VPN, this environment variable is used to define port(s) you want to allow in to the VPN network when network binding multiple containers together, configuring this incorrectly with the VPN provider assigned incoming port COULD result in IP leakage, you have been warned!.
**OpenVPN**<br/>
## OpenVPN
Please note this Docker image does not include the required OpenVPN configuration file and certificates. These will typically be downloaded from your VPN providers website (look for OpenVPN configuration files), and generally are zipped.
PIA users - The URL to download the OpenVPN configuration files and certs is:-
Once you have downloaded the zip (normally a zip as they contain multiple ovpn files) then extract it to /config/openvpn/ folder (if that folder doesn't exist then start and stop the docker container to force the creation of the folder).
If there are multiple ovpn files then please delete the ones you don't want to use (normally filename follows location of the endpoint) leaving just a single ovpn file and the certificates referenced in the ovpn file (certificates will normally have a crt and/or pem extension).
**WireGuard**<br/>
## WireGuard
If you wish to use WireGuard (defined via 'VPN_CLIENT' env var value ) then due to the enhanced security and kernel integration WireGuard will require the container to be defined with privileged permissions and sysctl support, so please ensure you change the following docker options:- <br/>
from
```
``` bash
--cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
```
to
```
``` bash
--sysctl="net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark=1" \

If you are using VPN provider PIA or ProtonVPN and wish to share the assigned dynamic incoming port with another docker container running in the same network then this can be done via a docker volume, so add the following to your docker run command:-
```
``` bash
-v <nameofvolume>:/shared \
```
e.g.
```
```bash
-v binhex-shared:/shared \
```
The incoming port will then be available in `/shared/getvpnport`.
