What’s your go too (secure) method for casting over the internet with a Jellyfin server.
I’m wondering what to use and I’m pretty beginner at this
I rent a cheap $5/mo VPS and use it to run a wireguard server with wgeasy and nginx proxy manager. Everything else runs on my home server connected by wireguard.
I was just trying to get a setup like this going yesterday. I used standard Wiregaurd and got that working between the VPS and home server, but I was trying to set up Caddy as a reverse proxy to direct the incoming traffic through the WG VPN to my services. I wasnt able to figure it out yesterday. Everyone online says Caddy is so simple, but I’m such a noob I just have no idea what it’s doing or how to troubleshoot.
I havent tried with caddy but i might be able to help you get it working if you wanna chat some time. My contact info is on my website.
I’ve also really struggled with Caddy despite everyone saying its so simple. I’m pretty new to all this, but I had better luck with Traefik - I now actually have a reverse proxy up and running correctly, which I haven’t been able replicate with Caddy.
Traefik labels make sense to me in a way Caddy does not.
I appreciate this response. I’ll try booting up traefik later.
I think Caddy just abstracts things to such a great degree that if you dont already know what it’s supposed to do, it’s harder to learn what you’re doing with it. I’m sure plenty of others have stepped right up and loved the “two line config” without already understanding the basics, but it’s not clicking for me.
Is Nginx Proxy Manager running on the VPS itself and then the proxy routes across the wireguard to your home server? Or is the VPS just port forwarding to your home server which runs the proxy?
My goal was to have no ports exposed on my home network so the proxy is on the VPS. My home server connects over wireguad to the vps, then all the traffic is routed over wireguard to the home server which only listens on wireguard.
I also would like to know
This is 99% my setup, just with a traefik container attached to my wifeguard container.
Can recommend especially because I can move apartments any time, not care about CGNAT (my current situation which I predicted would be the case), and easily switch to any backup by sticking my boxes on any network with DHCP that can reach the Internet (like a 4G hotspot or a nanobeam pointed at a public wifi down the road) in a pinch without reconfiguring anything.
