Comment on Replacing Cloudflare Tunnels with Tailscale?

Dave811@lemmy.today ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

So my post was the one to get rid of the cloudflare tunnel.

Basically I set up a tailscail docker on my home server and connected it with a one time key from tailscale. There I exposed my local network. (Perhaps secure that only to your homeserver IP)

Then I set up a Debian Server which hosts a lot of other stuff. But there I also installed tailscail and connected it to my account.

After this the most important part! I wasted hours to find this line of code sudo tailscale up --accept-routes With that you allow the external server to accept routes. Otherwise you can’t redirect to your homeserver

The next step I took was to install nginx and setup a reverse proxy to my traefik docker on my home network

Here I routed the domain with every subdomain (*.your.domain) to my homeserver.

My homeserver took care of the https certificate so my nginx server only redirects traefik from port 80.

I can share my configs later but I have a little problem with large nextcloud uploads. And I don’t have the previously working nginx config anymore… So I need to dig a bit further again.

Ask me questions, but I can only answer them in about 7h Hope my late night writing makes sense.
