Hi,
I an currently trying to add remote access to 2 of my servers but didn’t manage to get a working setup as is.
Right now I want to access 2 servers:
- one is for media stuff (navidrome, jellyfin, managing the arr stack)
- one is for my data syncing with rsync and after set a backup from borg to another server not on my domain
I was trying at some point to add stuff such as tailscale, but somehow I always had issues with having both servers reachable within the IP range I use on my local network, so everything would work as is with the current config at home being away. I have also heard of cloudflare tunnels as well, but that I didn’t try yet. At some point I tried to do just a regular wireguard from my opnsense, but I would prefer not to have open ports to worry about (and also had issues with internal IP not being assigned from wireguard as well).
Does anyone here has experience with this? If so, what was your solution and/or caviats to it?


Noted, moved to the top of the which VPN-ish tool to use soon stack.
It’s nice, the quickstart script is super easy to use and gets you started… well quickly. I’m still figuring the reverse proxy bit out, but it fully replaced tailscale for me in about ~10 minutes?
For the reverse-proxy you may find Traefik marvelous, in case if Nginx/HAproxy is too featureful for the case.
It uses Traefik by default, actually. I’m struggling to get the reverse proxy function to cooperate with me still hosting other things on the VPS. I use it not just as my Netbird coordinator, but also to host my Forge and site.
Oh! I see! Just in case, Traefik has great options for debugging, and logging (e.g. TRACE log level)! Not to mention custom plugins! There’s a great Discourse based forum, and there’s both IRC and Discord Communities, too! Though, you might have already checked those!
