Comment on Jellyfin over the internet
scoobydoo27@lemmy.zip 1 week agoSo I’m another newbie dummy to reverse proxies. I’ve got my jellyfin accessible at jellyfin.mydomain.com but I can only access it through the web. How do I share with other people who want to use the apps? I can’t get my apps to find my instance.

Can “your apps” access it when their device isn’t on your home LAN?

That was the problem, I couldn’t access anything away from my LAN. I finally figured it out though. I’m using Pangolin to access my services outside of my LAN and by default it adds a SSO option. Once I turned that off, my iPhone app was able to find my server through my domain name just fine. Thanks!

Do note that without that layer you were using Pangolin for, your system might be compromised by a vulnerability in Jellyfin’s server or a brute force attack on your Jellyfin admin account.

Understood. I set a strong password and a max login attempt on my account.
If someone does get into my account, wouldn’t they only be able to watch what I have on my server anyway?
