I am currently setting up a [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io) cluster, and wanted to setup a torrent client within the cluster.
|
|
Previously, I was using [Truenas](https://www.truenas.com) for my self hosting on-prem needs, which provides a nice mechanism to force a pod's
|
|
network to route through an OpenVPN container.
|
|
Not wanting to do something like that, I looked into other options and found that both [NordVPN](https://nordvpn.com) and Deluge support Socks5 Proxies! This is pretty sweet, as last I knew neither supported socks proxies.
|
|
Therefore, today I'm going to show you how to set this up yourself.
|
|

|
|
|
To get started, log in to your nord vpn console. If you're like me and the last time you logged in was five years ago, you can find the console [here](https://my.nordaccount.com/dashboard/nordvpn/manual-configuration/).
|
|
|
|
You need to go to the `Manual Configuration` section down at the bottom, then get your username and password.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now with your credentials, log into deluge with the same credentials. You'll be presented a few option which I can provide below.
|
|
|
|
- Type : `Socks5 Auth`
|
|
- Port : `1080`
|
|
- [x] Proxy Hostnames
|
|
- [x] Proxy Peers
|
|
- [x] Proxy Trackers
|
|
- [x] Force use of proxy
|
|
|
|
For the hostname, just choose from any of the below hostnames. For better performance, I'd recomend choosing one that is somewhat close to you.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
amsterdam.nl.socks.nordhold.net
|
|
atlanta.us.socks.nordhold.net
|
|
dallas.us.socks.nordhold.net
|
|
los-angeles.us.socks.nordhold.net
|
|
nl.socks.nordhold.net
|
|
se.socks.nordhold.net
|
|
stockholm.se.socks.nordhold.net
|
|
us.socks.nordhold.net
|
|
new-york.us.socks.nordhold.net
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Thats it! Try out downloading something like [Big buck bunny](big-buck-bunny.torrent), or something else that won't upset your ISP. Then check [I know what you download](https://iknowwhatyoudownload.com/en/peer/) and see if you see your torrent. If you don't see it after a few hours, then you should be good to go!
