Hi all,
I'm configuring a NAS for a small business, to allow secure transfer of files to clients directly from the Synology NAS.
So far, I have configured the NAS as a reverse proxy server and opened port xyz (ports 80 and 443 are already forwarded to other services, so this is some other port).
I set up a reverse proxy from the NAS to itself, meaning that I can generate file sharing links like https:// nas1.mydomain.com:xyz/sharing/randomcode.
This works perfectly for my needs, but it leaves the NAS login page open to the internet at https:// nas1.mydomain.com:xyz. I feel this is insecure and I'd like to set up a system where these file sharing links can be provided without the login page available.
Is there a better way to configure a reverse proxy to bypass this issue? Should I resign myself to port forwarding instead?
