So I'm stuck. I can get the manager and the client to work and connect to the VPN in the container, and it looks like I have internet when I connect on the client, however, my public IP still shows the same whether I'm connected or not.

I need to do some more testing to be sure I'm doing this right and whether I'm really connected. Let's set up a VPN connection from the Chromebook and LGPhone. Since the LGPhone can connect to cell networks (ie outside my network) I might have the best chance with this.

Docker Setup

• -p 1194:1194/udp for OpenVPN.
• -p 443:443/tcp for OpenVPN over HTTPS.
