I run proxy through RPi3b+ that is installed in another country. I want to open a port on RPi that is being used by qbittorent on main machine which is 6881. Is there any way to do it?

I have used ufw enable 6881/tcp but it seems not to work. And I tried miniupnp but it fails to ind IGD which must be there cause router does have UPnP tailscale port open automatically. Am I doing something wrong?

Using a proxy in qBittorrent means never having an open port for incoming bittorrent connections, you’re always firewalled / not connectable in that configuration.

I guess case is solved. This is exactly what I wanted to do, and it seems that it wont work.

What is interesting to me is that on rpi3 iptables -L shows tailnet IP with port 6881 listening. Also, wanted to note that pinging subnet ip of NAS from rpi3 works, but pinging tailnet IP ends in 100% packet loss.

Anyway, thanks for mentioning that. Guess I am stuck.
