Are there any good docker containers that have an openvpn + qbittorrent configuration setup in such a way that the torrents won’t run if the vpn isn’t running?

Yes, it can only affect the network of the container
Now you got me thinking Might actually make a post asking for an equivalent usenet (box) to have a usenet and seedbox on prem:D
That Saltbox one can be used for both Usenet or torrents
Ah interesting. Might be worth looking into the saltbox someone posted above. I currently use a seedbox service
I run wireguard in one container (as a client connected to Mullvad), and then qBittorent in another container but using the network of the wireguard container.
Then I just set up routing rules in wireguard to allow my local network to be exempted from the tunnel so I can reach the web interface of qBittorent.
All my torrent traffic goes over the VPN, I can still reach the webui and none of my other containers are affected. Super simple and very reliable.
I have my qbittorrent behind Gluetun and port forward the web interface port through Gluetun

Very nice! This is basically exactly what I’m doing except I’m doing it in ansible and using the linuxserver/wireguard container.
I went with Gluetun because they work with either OVPN or Wireguard (depends on what you configure in compose) and I have already used it through Truecharts
