I'm trying to set up the PIA WireGuard VPN through Portainer (Docker) on my TrueNAS Scale server, but I'm hitting some snags. I attempted to use Glueten to find the WireGuard configuration file from PIA, but I couldn't locate it. I also tried using the Docker container from Docker Hub (thrnz/docker-wireguard-pia), but that hasn't worked for me either. If anyone has experience running WireGuard in Docker for PIA and can share how you got it to work, I'd really appreciate your assistance! Just a side note—I really like PIA, but setting this up feels way more complicated than it should be compared to their competitors.

I've been using that container for a couple of years now without any issues. I set it up with Docker Compose and routed all my torrent containers through it. Here's a snippet of my configuration:
```yaml
services:
vpn:
image: thrnz/docker-wireguard-pia
hostname: torrents
volumes:
- /srv/safe/docker/piawireguard/pia:/pia
- /srv/safe/docker/piawireguard/pia-shared:/pia-shared
cap_add:
- NET_ADMIN
- SYS_MODULE
devices:
- /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun
container_name: piawireguard
environment:
- LOC=${PIALOC}
- USER=${PIAUSER}
- PASS=${PIAPASS}
- LOCAL_NETWORK=${PIALOCAL_NETWORK}
- PORT_FORWARDING=1
sysctls:
- net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark=1
- net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1
- net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
- net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6=1
healthcheck:
test: ping -c 1 www.google.com || exit 1
interval: 30s
timeout: 10s
retries: 3
networks:
MyMacvlan2:
ipv4_address: 10.10.10.80
restart: unless-stopped
```
This setup has worked great for me! Let me know if you need any more specifics.
Are you sure you're using the right container for WireGuard? Just double-checking!
