Hello.
I have installed Official qBittorrent with all defaults
Storage for Config and Downloads
User - Apps - Owner + Group permissions
Installation was successful but cannot view portal - Unauthorized.
Please help.

It worked - Brave browser security.
Firefox no issue at all.
Thank you.

How can I setup qBittorrent to a VPN service?

Dont know If the official App Supports vpn, but the truecharts App Supports openvpn and wireguard.

Install the TrueCharts version of QBittorrent.

Then follow this guide:


"Heavy" also has a good guide here: https://heavysetup.info/applications/about/

FWIW, the TrueCharts version of QBittorrent doesn't have the "unauthorized" issue described in the OP.

There is no default password, not since the v4.6.1 was released. See https://www.qbittorrent.org/news. Now, since we don't actually get to see the console during installation to TrueNAS, we're in a bit of a pickle.

One suggested solution is to edit the /var/db/qBittorrent/conf/qBittorrent/config/qBittorrent.conf and set the value
WebUI\Password_PBKDF2="@ByteArray(ARQ77eY1NUZaQsuDHbIMCA==:0WMRkYTUWVT9wVvdDtHAjU9b3b7uB8NR1Gur2hmQCvCDpm39Q+PsJRJPaCU51dEiz+dTzh8qbPsL8WkFljQYFQ==)"

Which is supposed to set the password to 'adminadmin'. Didn't try it myself though.

Or, if you had a backup of a previous setup or if you are doing a migration, like I did, you can copy the WebUI\Password_PBKDF2 and WebUI\Username values.

How do you edit the file you ask. Well, from within the jail, not that easily. I copied the original out of the jail, edited, copied back into jail. The first step would be to shut down the jail, then copy:
cp /mnt/<poolname>/iocage/jails/<jailname>/root/var/db/qbittorrent/conf/qBittorrent/config/qBittorrent.conf /mnt/<poolname>/<sharename>/<locationofchoice>

Replace the <> values according to your own situation.
