I love my homelab, and the more I tune things the more satisfaction I have. I tolerated the “Your connection is not private” for my self-signed SSL certs on my services for way too long.
I just setup NGINX Proxy Manager as a LXC on my Proxmox Server and pointed a subdomain I own to the server. Now I have custom domains for each service along with valid SSL Certificates. It’s all local without exposing anything to the outside world. It’s very satisfying. I tried explaining what I was doing to my GF but she could care less ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Followed this video from Wolfgang’s Channel YouTube (great channel btw), the first minute does a better job explaining the setup. I always thought I would have to setup a local CA which is more work than I was interested in, but this approach was much simpler (and free!).
One day i will take my lazy ass and fix this too. Not today though, but some day!
Totally worth it. Was the same, thought it’s okay but totally changed it for me and not that hard to set up.
Yup, im pretty sure most people feel the same way.
Its been on my to do list for the past few years now
Indeed. Found this video as well recently and have gone as far as to bookmark it to watch later. How long later is TBD
Same here. I just don’t have a value. I disable login for some stuff cause it’s overkill. Nothing is exposed outside.
I took the time months ago to setup a wildcart cert with letsencrypt but they’re only good for like 3 months. The first time it expired I was like meh fuck it lol
