PIA OpenVPN Settings

[CheekyPanda2]

Can anyone share with me their settings to get PIA OpenVPN working? I for the life of me can't get port forwarding to work. Constantly getting firewalled.

You'll have to provide more info like your host OS, etc to get more help. I'm on Proxmox in an LXC and I have the LXC firewall disabled (I have upstream firewall and this container is the only thing running in this LXC). I don't know if it would work the same/better/worse with firewall enabled. Here's my config, but some of the variables are set for my situation and you may need/want to change them:

docker run -d \
    --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
    -p 8090:8090 \
    -p 8118:8118 \
    -p 9118:9118 \
    -p 58946:58946 \
    -p 58946:58946/udp \
    --name=qbitopenvpn \
    -v /usr/arch-qbittorrentvpn/data/:/data \
    -v /usr/arch-qbittorrentvpn/config/:/config \
    -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
    -e VPN_ENABLED=yes \
    -e VPN_USER=pxxxxxxx \
    -e VPN_PASS=password \
    -e VPN_PROV=pia \
    -e VPN_CLIENT=openvpn \
    -e ENABLE_STARTUP_SCRIPTS=no \
    -e ENABLE_PRIVOXY=no \
    -e STRICT_PORT_FORWARD=yes \
    -e USERSPACE_WIREGUARD=no \
    -e ENABLE_SOCKS=yes \
    -e SOCKS_USER=admin \
    -e SOCKS_PASS=socks \
    -e LAN_NETWORK=192.168.137.0/24 \
    -e NAME_SERVERS=1.1.1.1,84.200.69.80,37.235.1.174,37.235.1.177,84.200.70.40,1.0.0.1 \
    -e DEBUG=false \
    -e WEBUI_PORT=8090 \
    -e UMASK=002 \
    -e PUID=0 \
    -e PGID=2222 \
    binhex/arch-qbittorrentvpn

I ended up switching to Wireguard and it seems to be working fine now. Unraid with docker.
