  • This part always confuses me, so I won’t be able to give specifics; just a general direction. Most guides explain how to route traffic from a vpn client to the lan of the vpn host. You need to route traffic from the vpn host/lan to a client of the vpn.

    You need to change the routing table on the VPS, adding a static route to route traffic heading for your VPNs subnet to the VPN host instead of out the default gateway.

    How exactly to do that I’ll have to leave to someone else unfortunately. Network config confuses the hell out of me.



  • Many people advocate for Cloudflared as a tunneling solution, but it’s not a one-size-fits-all tool. Personally, I avoid it. Your VPS already functions as a firewall for your connection. Using Tailscale is also self-host and avoids reliance on third-party services like Cloudflare while maintaining security and the same functionality.

    OPs not using cloudflareds tunneling or services at all; in this application, it’s purely a local tool for translating regular DNS to DOH using the chosen DOH provider. Mullvad in this case.
