Transmission

Settings mentioned below should already exist in your inventory/group_vars/all/transmission.yml file

Using a different VPN location or type

For supported providers, you can change the server location and/or type.

1. Make sure transmission_vpn_provider is set to your correct provider

   a. You can find supported providers at the official docs page

2. Find your VPN providers folder in this github repo

3. Find the correct VPN config you want to use, and use this as the value for transmission_ovpn_config_file, and remove the .ovpn from the end

For example, if you wanted to use the US Chicago server for mullvad:

transmission_vpn_provider: MULLVAD
...
transmission_ovpn_config_file: us_chi

Using a local OpenVPN config file

1. Change transmission_vpn_provider to custom

2. Change transmission_ovpn_config_file to the .ovpn file name, and remove the .ovpn from the end

3. Change transmission_ovpn_config_local_path to the folder path where the above file is stored

   a. If needed by your provider/server, make sure certificate files and any others are also in the same folder

For example, if you had a custom file named test-vpn.ovpn located in /opt/hms-docker/vpn_configs (this folder does not exist by default, just an example):

transmission_ovpn_config_file: test-vpn
transmission_ovpn_config_local_path: /opt/hms-docker/vpn_configs
