Self-hosted VPN server made EASY!

[girish]

Thanks for the feedback!

On my personal wish list: To be able to set the VPN app as the 'network' for an existing installed app. This way that app can only be reached via the VPN.

I would very much like to see this happen! It looks like this was on the roadmap for 7.4 release but didn't make it. I hope you can find the time for it.

I am using self-hosted Netbird (deployed on a VPS)
It works great !!
"unifies" devices across different networks and locations
Personally I find it easier than Cloudron VPN, but maybe I should review the Cloudron offering again

I recently started using Pangolin on a vps I got on black friday. Its main purpose is exposing web applications with optional auth (which can use Cloudron for OIDC), but they recently added private networks as well. No mobile clients yet unfortunately. For sites it is compatible with Wireguard.

@fbartels do you think it's integratable for what Girish wants?

[fbartels]

In general yes Pangolin could do something like that. But I don't think this will work without fiddling with Cloudron internals. Its probably best if this would be a feature of the Cloudron native vpn app.

@girish Can you run multiple instances of the VPN App (or any app) on the same Cloudron server that has a paid subscription?

Hello @joe.d and welcome to the Cloudron forum

Yes, you can install any app as many times as you want, including the VPN app.

@james some require specific ports, so limits to the exhaustable port ranges.

@james Thanks for the info

In what world is Netbird easier to set up than the Cloudron VPN?

That comment seems bizarre to me. Makes me wanna say:

Kindly don't hijack my thread here for "ads" (I know it's not but seems like it) and/or dev circle jerks.

Feel free to open your own thread on the matter.

@svtx I didn't say "easier to setup"
easier to use - extra features

I am not hijacking your thread - I am contributing my experience that cloudron vpn may be good but necessarily great.

I am not advertising anything !! There is no alternative

Fine - live in your own world then.
