How are you making services remotely accessible?
How are you making services remotely accessible?
I need help figuring out where I am going wrong or being an idiot, if people could point out where...
I have a server running Debian 12 and various docker images (Jellyfin, Home Assistant, etc...) controlled by portainer.
A consumer router assigns static Ip addresses by MAC address. The router lets me define the IP address of a primary/secondary DNS. The router registers itself with DynDNS.
I want to make this remotely accessible.
From what I have read I need to setup a reverse proxy, I have tried to follow various guides to give my server a cert for the reverse proxy but it always fails.
I figure the server needs the dyndns address to point at it but I the scripts pick up the internal IP.
How are people solving this?
You're viewing a single thread.
If you are the only one using the services, then go for a VPN instead of port forwarding or sth. This way, your stuff isn't openly accessible from the internet to anyone poking around
I agree with this, protecting everything behind a VPN is the way to go. I help friends setup their vpn client to my stuff if I want them to access an internal service.
Set up VPN = scan QR code. Love how easy everything has gotten
