Need help setting up webui in Deluge - Linux Virtualbox with PIA VPN

[dextabrewa]

Server:

I have Ubuntu installed on a Windows machine running PIA with a killswitch as a home Plex server/torrent box. Plex is running on Windows and Deluge is running through Ubuntu. Torrent files meet Plex with a shared folder through Virtualbox

My problem:

I have family out of state who would like to add torrents remotely. This isn't working because of my port setup. I'm having trouble finding a reliable script to update deluge with the correct PIA port and IP, since they are constantly changing. I'm also struggling to get the webui to work because of the all the network complications involved in a Virtualbox VPN set up. Forwarding the ports correctly seems to be the main issue.

What I'm seeking:

- Better information on auto updating Deluge config with PIA network info

- How to port forward with a Virtualbox inside windows to get deluge webui working outside local network


Has anyone successfully done this set up? If you haven't does anyone have any options? Losing hair over this. Happy to provide more info.

Have you tried this plugin: https://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Plugins/IfaceWatch

The plugin says "no webui support"

I'll give the plugin a shot tomorrow but does no webui support in this plugin interfere with my goal to set up a webui..?

You can configure it from thinclient gtkui

That plugin works great, thanks.
