Dockerised Transmission over VPN

This setup allows to have a VPN server running, for downloading all your Linux ISOs over a VPN.

This works by using the amazing gluetun container and giving it a name container_name:vpn and referencing that name in all the containers where we want to go through a VPN by setting network_mode: "container:vpn". The two containers don't have to be in the same docker-compose file.

All the traffic is then routed thought the VPN container, where also the ports then are set.

Many vpn providers are supported, just look at the gluetun docs.
