I was going to use the built-in OpenVPN in TrueNAS until I found out it's going to be deprecated.

I only really need it for the qbitorrent/transmission and prowlarr/jackett (haven't decided yet) apps in TrueNAS, so I don't know what the next best option is.

I have found plenty of documentation on how to use the integrated OpenVPN feature of TrueNAS, but since the announcement of it's deprecation and future elimination is only ~2 months old, I haven't found any new documentation yet on alternate methods.

I see stuff about tailscale but that doesn't seem to be what I'm trying to do.

Thanks.

    wireguard is the new protocol though wdym?

    you can run wireguard on opnsense itself through a plugin.

      For the Wireguard app, when you go to select OpenVPN it says (deprecated).

        hmm i havent used truenas scale, but gluetun is just a program to help users connect to any vpn without downloading config files as pia supports wireguard, gluetun will use it by default.

        i suggest against using openvpn, its really not very good for performance because its single threaded.
