I currenly reside in a country with strict piracy rules but also have access to the internet in a country where piracy is not enforced. I want to setup a VPN and route qBittorrent’s traffic through it. The idea is to do something like this:

I am fresh to selfhosting and most of the time have no clue how to achieve what I want. So far I have tried Tailscale but I think it won’t work how I want it to. If it helps, I have domain name registered. Can anybody point me to the right direction?

    Why can’t you just use a VPN service, locally? It’s essentially the same thing, except you don’t have to host the exit node in country B yourself.

    Tailscale is wireguard behind the scenes. I would think it should be able to work as you describe, you would again just set your machine in country B as the exit node.

    None of this should require a domain name.

      I have to pay for a VPN service. If I can skip paying by hosting it myself, I’d go the distance. It has been fun selfhosting services so far. I want to go deeper.
