Problems with port forwarding through VPN
-
I am trying to get specific ports to be routed through the VPN from different machines. I have attached shots of my settings below. Traffic is being passed if I look at my packet captures, but apparently either it is only going one way through the VPN or something else is blocking it since I am still getting reports of being unconnectable. Can someone please help me?
I thought I had figured out the solution to this problem a while ago but apparently I was wrong.

Source ports are generally random and dynamic and it's usually a mistake to specify them:
Specify the source port or port range for this rule. This is usually random and almost never equal to the destination port range (and should usually be 'any').
Hint: you can leave the 'to' field empty if you only want to filter a single port.Buried under an Advanced button for a reason.

So for the NAT rules I should move the SRC port to the Dest port?

I don't know. What are you trying to port forward, specifically?

Torrents specifically. 2 different machines and 2 different ports.

192.168.1.40:23928 <-> VPN
192.168.1.221:26688 <-> VPNIs that what you were asking?
-
So your VPN Provider is forwarding 23928 and 26688 to you or what?
-
Also the port forwards/allow will likely need to be on the pia interface. Not lan.

Just a small update, I found someone who had a walk through and apparently it is a port forwarding issue on PIA side. So I am in the process of figuring that part out as we speak. I have it setup on pFsense but now I need to convert a script for synology to work in ubuntu.
Thank you for the help and made me look outside the what I was already thinking.
