Pritunl as a Docker container

Docker Hub Releases

Config (env)

• PRITUNL_DONT_WRITE_CONFIG if set, /etc/pritunl.conf will not be auto-written on container start.
• PRITUNL_DEBUG must be true or false - controls the debug config key.
• PRITUNL_BIND_ADDR must be a valid IP on the host - defaults to 0.0.0.0 - controls the bind_addr config key.
• PRITUNL_MONGODB_URI URI to mongodb instance, default is starting a local mongodb instance in the container and use that.

Usage

Just build it or pull it from jippi/pritunl. Run it something like this:

docker run \
    -d \
    --privileged \
    -p 1194:1194/udp \
    -p 1194:1194/tcp \
    -p 80:80/tcp \
    -p 443:443/tcp \
    jippi/pritunl

If you have a mongodb somewhere you'd like to use for this rather than starting the built-in one you can do so through the PRITUNL_MONGODB_URI env var like this:

docker run \
    -d \
    --privileged \
    -e PRITUNL_MONGODB_URI=mongodb://some-mongo-host:27017/pritunl \
    -p 1194:1194/udp \
    -p 1194:1194/tcp \
    -p 80:80/tcp \
    -p 443:443/tcp \
    jippi/pritunl

Example production usage:

mkdir -p /gluster/docker0/pritunl/{mongodb,pritunl}
touch gluster/docker0/pritunl/pritunl.conf

docker run \
    --name=pritunl \
    --detach \
    --privileged \
    --network=host \
    --restart=always \
    -v /gluster/docker0/pritunl/mongodb:/var/lib/mongodb \
    -v /gluster/docker0/pritunl/pritunl:/var/lib/pritunl \
    -v /gluster/docker0/pritunl/pritunl.conf:/etc/pritunl.conf \
    jippi/pritunl

Then you can login to your pritunl web ui at https://docker-host-address

I would suggest using docker data volume for persistent storage of pritunl data, something like this:

## create the data volume
docker run \
    -v /var/lib/pritunl \
    --name=pritunl-data busybox
    
## use the data volume when starting pritunl
docker run \
    --name pritunl \
    --privileged \
    --volumes-from=pritunl-data \
    -e PRITUNL_MONGODB_URI=mongodb://some-mongo-host:27017/pritunl \
    -p 1194:1194/udp \
    -p 1194:1194/tcp \
    -p 80:80/tcp \
    -p 443:443/tcp \
    jippi/pritunl

Then you're on your own, but take a look at http://pritunl.com or https://github.com/pritunl/pritunl
