proxy

In computer networks, a proxy server is a server (a computer system or an application) that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers. A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource available from a different server and the proxy server evaluates the request as a way to simplify and control its complexity. Proxies were invented to add structure and encapsulation to distributed systems.

    Best proxy - traefik, NPM, SWAG, caddy or other?

    Hi all, I’m a fairly long term linuxserver SWAG user for remote access but for some reason their new dashboard doesn’t work properly on my synology. The proxied apps section is empty - not a big deal as SWAG itself works really well but it’s made me think I should look to see if there’s...

    OTP/2FA not working with Reverse Proxy

    I have managed to set up a reverse proxy, which I am loving. However I can't log into DS Video / Files / Finder apps (on Android) using accounts that have OTP generated by an authenticator app (I use Authy but I presume this is irrelevant). I have tested this by disabling 2FA on a certain...

    REVERSE PROXY - QUESTIONS

    I have multiple NAS devices on my LAN. Having read several posts on this forum, it would appear that setting up 'reverse proxy' would resolve the issue of connecting someone outside of my LAN to the correct NAS & folder on that NAS. I presently have a static IP address provided by my ISP. The...

    Befuddled port forwarding... Off-NAS reverse proxy confusion

    I've been toying with nginx (docker) on a Raspberry Pi, but when I forward 443 to the RPi on the same network, things don't go as I hoped. Some background... Typically, 443 is forwarded to the NAS (443>443) and the NAS internal reverse proxy works as expected. But when I edited the router 443...

    EDIT: I've managed to track it down to my router that seems unwilling to forward port 443 at all. Since I can't delete the thread, I'll leave it for anyone that is interested in a port-forwarding issue or debugging of similarissues. --- I managed to set up Reverse Proxy to one of my Docker...
