I have Proton VPN and qbittorrent running on Windows 10 with qbittorrent bound to Proton interface.
Every now and then Proton will reconnect in the background which means the port changes and the IP address changes.
How can I monitor Proton for these changes and either a.) update qbittorrent or b.) use Pushover to notify me that a change has occurred?
Can I ask, how do you detect that?
Without rDNS:
nslookup xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (VPN IP)
** server can’t find xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa: NXDOMAIN
With rDNS it might look like this:
nslookup 208.104.203.197
197.203.104.208.in-addr.arpa name = 208-104-203-197.reserved.comporium.net.
ETA: I just pulled 208.104.203.197 out of my firewall. I have beef with them. They hammer me daily from all the way in Gilbert, SC where the fuck that is but I wished they’d stop. I just block their entire CIDR.
nslookup xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (VPN IP) ** server can’t find xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa: NXDOMAIN
With rDNS it might look like this:
nslookup 208.104.203.197 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa name = xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.reserved.example.net.
