Finally got my server to work properly. (Routing with custom local domain instead of ports)
Finally got my server to work properly. (Routing with custom local domain instead of ports)
I spent all day today trying to get the routing to work correctly between Tailscale, Nginx and Adguard.
Basically I wanted to be able to be able to use **http://immich.network ** to route to 192.168.1.2:9000
I wanted to share the steps I took so people don't have to go through what I did.
First a few things Local Server IP: 192.168.1.2
- I installed Ngnix and Adguard, in a Docker Containers, and gave Adguard IPs 3000, 3001 instead of 80 and 443 because Ngnix took it.
- I went to my router and made it use the DNS: 192.168.1.2
- I configured Proxy Host in Ngnix ..... immich.network => 192.168.1.2:9000
- I configured DNS rewrite in Adguard .... *.network => 192.168.1.2
At this point I was able to use http://immich.network finally. I installed Tailscale to be able to access when I'm outside but http://immich.network didn't work.
These helped me https://tailscale.com/kb/1019/subnets + https://tailscale.com/kb/1054/dns?q=global+nameserver
- I created a subnet..... tailscale up --advertise-routes=192.168.1.0/24
- I approved it on Tailscale login
At this point I was able to access home server using its local IP 192.168.1.2 but I couldn't get http://immich.network to work.
- I created a nameserver dns with split DNS but I used my local ip.. 192.168.1.2 => network
Finally everything is working.. I have a feeling that I'm doing it wrong but I'm too tired and it's finally working.

Congrats !!!!
Only one day? Lucky you ! It took me a whole week to get it to work with self-signed ssl certificate behind Traefik + docker + Adguardhome.
Adguard home rewrites and the correct certificate configuration solved most of my isues (android can be picky with self-signed root certificates). But I learned ALOT through the whole week, so I didn't waste my time :).
I hope you too learned alot :) but if I may, I would switch from AdguardHome to Pi-hole.
I know... AdguardHomes functionalities and UI are awesome and overpass Pi-Holes' but since I saw they add some strange trackers and very sketchy DNS request in their AdguardVPN android application, I don't trust them anymore !
I hope you too learned alot :) but if I may, I would switch from AdguardHome to Pi-hole.
+1
- pi-hole rocks! :)
It does !! I really like it and was easy peasy to make the switch. But I have to admit, AdguardHome's UI and DNS logs are way more detailed and I'm missing a few features I used with AGH. But nothing to critical that makes pi-hole unusable in my workflow !
But yeah, they do not have the same budget... That's a good tradeoff i'm willing to take for my privacy :).
And one day, when I get a job I will surely donate to them.
I just finished the SSL today, but have you gotten Syncthing GUI to work though? I can't seem to get it to work with the domain for some reason.
Hummm, I have a syncthing instance in a docker compose, so yeah I can access it through my ssl domain (https://syncthing.home.lab) but traefik takes care of everything.
Now if it's on your local machine you're trying to use your SSL certificate I don't know, I always access it through the local ip (127.0.0.1:8384).
If I had to guess or give it a try, I would point the IP to my dns through my host file on my machine. But that's just a wild guess :/
I think syncthing has a good documentation about it :)
You could use split DNS on your router (or wherever your DNS is) so that when you visit the syncthing address on your local network, you’re being directed to traefik.
I use a domain override in pfsense for syncthing.myhomelab.com which points to my reverse proxy’s local IP.
I can access using the local ip but I can't access using the ssl domain, I can access it but I can't login for some reason. I can't figure out how to fix it
