Pivpn

I have recentely had to configure a vpn to access my wd network share after the 1001th frustration with the mycloud app and downtimes.

Quick steps to configure pivpn with ddns:

make dhcp reservation for rpi on router
port forward whatever port the vpn will use with UDP set as the protocol (avoid default wg port due to port scanning)
register a noip domain
make a ddclient service for Raspberry Pi dynamic DNS
configure router to update noip when IP changes
normal pivpn setup
