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.
It's impressive that you was able to get it to help you correctly. It usually just spew things i need to fix that's why I didn't ask him, thank you for the tip.
Btw did you use a custom local domain name or did you use an actual domain ?
Thanks, it took some prompts but it worked in the end! I used a few subdomains of an actual domain I use for email...
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.
Don't mean to necrobump. But I have Syncthing GUI working over a very similar setup. Let me know if you still need help setting it up.
It took me a week suffering to get syncthing to work but it finally did. Thank you
No, sorry I haven't tried it with Syncthing. Mainly using it for immich, seafile, a matrix server, some arr apps and a status monitor called dashdot. Would be useful for syncthing though, never thought of trying it - I'll give it a shot over the weekend and let you know how it goes!
Thank you, looking forward to hearing from you
