From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Here's mine, if this helps? I have WireGuard running on an Alpine LXC on my LAN, and use it to connect back home. I can SSH to or use resources from any other machine on the LAN while connected. You'll need to amend the include rules to match whatever distro you're using (the paths will be different), and you can add whatever rules you wish under the LAN section to allow local access to the WireGuard 'host' for other services (eg SSH).
There's also a lot of useful info on the Pro Custodibus blog.
