Finally got my server to work properly. (Routing with custom local domain instead of ports) (programming.dev)

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

  1. I installed Ngnix and Adguard, in a Docker Containers, and gave Adguard IPs 3000, 3001 instead of 80 and 443 because Ngnix took it.
  2. I went to my router and made it use the DNS: 192.168.1.2
  3. I configured Proxy Host in Ngnix ..... immich.network => 192.168.1.2:9000
  4. 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

  1. I created a subnet..... tailscale up --advertise-routes=192.168.1.0/24
  2. 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.

  1. 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.

@Mir @rhymepurple Another place you can get free domain names is freedns.afraid.org - they have been around nearly forever and all you have to do is log into their site and go to any page once every six months (I guess so they know you are still alive) but they will email you a notice a couple weeks before that time is up. And at least for me they have always been very reliable.

Thank you, Might try them because duck dns domain is flagged by the browser for some reason and it's worth than no https warning
