OpenVPN

Yet another OpenVPN client docker container.

Features:

  • For use by other containers with --net=container:openvpn.
  • No DNS leaks -- DNS is via the tunnel.
  • No IP leaks -- If openvpn dies, the connected containers will not route beyond the local LAN.

How to build this image

You can skip this and pull straight from the docker registry if you like.

docker build -t troyc/openvpn-client-noleaks .

How to use this image

NOTE: OpenVPN requires certain privileges. You must use the --cap-add=NET_ADMIN and --device /dev/net/tun options.

You must provide a VPN configuration and certificate. Put your VPN configuration in /some/path/vpn.conf. If your certificate is not embedded, place it in /some/path/cert_file and reference cert_file in your vpn.conf.

docker run --cap-add=NET_ADMIN --device /dev/net/tun --name openvpn \
            -v /some/path:/vpn -d troyc/openvpn-client-noleaks

Timezone

If you care about the times shown in the logs, you can add

        -v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro

Use by Other Containers

Once it's up, other containers can be started using this container's network connection:

docker run --net=container:openvpn -d some/docker-container
