Hello sailors,

I wanted to try out Arr* and installed and configured everything for the first few days (Native, Arch). Just tinkering around.

Radarr and Sonarr used qbittorrent at first, but the permissions gave me trouble. I installed qbittorrent-nox and run it via systemd for a different user. This fixed my permission troubles.

However, even though both run with the same settings, nox is firewalled (DHT: 0 nodes, stuck on getting the metadata) while the regular version shows online and downloads with good speeds.

I use MullvadVPN (doesn't offer Port Forwarding anymore). I opened a port in my router.

I'm pretty new to this. Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem? Do I have to add something to the systemd service?

Any hints wouldbe appreciated! Thanks for reading!

systemd service:

[Unit]
Description=qBittorrent-nox service
Documentation=man:qbittorrent-nox(1)
Wants=network-online.target
After=network-online.target nss-lookup.target

[Service]
Type=exec
User=qbittorrent-nox
group=arr
ExecStart=/usr/bin/qbittorrent-nox -webui-port=8080

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

I'm looking into Proton, Windscribe and AirVPN atm. Travelling the high seas is my main reason for a VPN. In the past I didn't use it enough to switch from Mullvad, which I liked except for their port forwarding switch.

Thanks for the hint.
