Official NordVPN
client in a docker container; it makes routing traffic through the NordVPN
network easy.
This container was designed to be started first to provide a connection to other containers (using --net=container:vpn
, see below Starting an NordVPN client instance).
NOTE: More than the basic privileges are needed for NordVPN. With docker 1.2 or newer you can use the --cap-add=NET_ADMIN
option. Earlier versions, or with fig, and you'll have to run it in privileged mode.
docker run -ti --cap-add=NET_ADMIN --name vpn \
-e [email protected] -e PASS='pas$word' \
-e TECHNOLOGY=NordLynx -d ghcr.io/bubuntux/nordvpn
Once it's up other containers can be started using its network connection:
docker run -it --net=container:vpn -d some/docker-container
