ANSWERED Port forwarding to slskd (Docker Desktop)

[Bakadori 0]

Hello!

I've been able to use port forwarding both in qbittorrent and nicotine+ (soulseek client) thanks to the possibility to choose the Network Interface in those apps. But when I try to run slskd (different soulseek client) as a container in Windows Docker Desktop, I can't get the listening port to work (own shares are not browsable by other users, other functions ok). I have (ie 12345)

soulseek: listen_ip_
   address: 0.0.0.0
   listen_port: 12345

in my config yaml and

    ports:
      - 5030:5030/tcp
      - 5031:5031/tcp
      - 12345:12345/tcp

in my compose. In Docker I have host networking enabled and the port binding behavior is Open (Default).

If someone has a similar setup working and can let me know what I'm missing / doing wrong, thanks in advance!

I don't use slsk (SoulseekQt) anymore but only Nicotine+. I think I remember that SoulseekQt requires more than one port forwarded.

Ah, I suppose this is VERY BASIC KNOWLEDGE, but I just found out that Docker doesn't direct it's containers through the vpn and that I need an extra tool (ie gluetun) to do that . I was able to set it up and everything works just fine.
