Tunnel with qBittorrent

Zero Trust Cloudflare Tunnel
1

Hi,

qBittorrent embeds an internal tracker server that I configured on port 9000 (Windows 10 - Internal firewall disabled). When I Curl the port on localhost port 9000 I get an answer.

I used the Zero Trust dashboard to create a tunnel with the following rule localhost 9000

I can not Curl from the domain example me so external client can not reach example me 9000 announce

Before spending too much time debugging, I would like to check if somebody can confirm that I can use a Tunnel to achieve what I want (the idea is to avoid opening ports on the ISP box and have external BitTorrent client reach the tracker server on the Windows 10 machine).

Thanks.

http://localhost:9000
http://example.me:9000/announce

So if you are trying to use non-http/s then all the client will need cloudflared installed.

Cloudflare doesn’t proxy port 9000 by default and a torrent server behind Cloudflare’s proxy service is probably an Enterprise level solution based on the paygo TOS.

Thank you both. Will drop the idea as this is for sure not a good fit.
