Access home server from anywhere (lemmy.zip)

Hi, I know this topic has been talked about 70 thousand times but I’m still not sure.

I have home server on an intel NUC behind the ISP router. On it I have the standard arr apps, jellyfin, pi-hole etc etc. I would like to access them through a domain rather than an IP. So I set them up in docker, behind traefik, behind authelia and behind cloudflare. I am the only one that uses it.

Now, I’m worried about the security of it all. I’ve been searching here and there and I’ve read about cf tunnels, wireguard server, vps, vlan, OPNsense etc etc. I still don’t know what would be the most secure. Should I just stay with what I have?

EDIT: I'm not behind CGNAT

Yup, run journalctl and I can see ufw blocking requests. Now just need to figure out how to allow it

EDIT: Adding a rule "ufw allow from 192.x.x.x/24" fixed it, just need to find out if THAT's secure now lmao

You can bound ufw rules to interfaces, so you can allow in only on the wg0 interface and not eth0 interface.

Glad it's working! I love wireguard!

I couldn't use the interface, as wg is in a docker container, but I used the container IP, and it seems to be working. Huge thanks! Now I can get rid of Cloudflare and related containers :D (just need to fix the homepage first, I'm not using IPs for services lol)
