Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

The challenge here is that the host is Unraid, which publishes its own interface on 80/443. My reverse proxy is of course handling all requests for my sites, but that is ALSO running on a container, and must be listening on something other than 80/443 when using host or bridge networking.
So, if I'm following along correctly, I would need to put my reverse proxy on a different host (bare metal or VM) in order for it to listen on 80/443.
I'm not too familiar with unraid but from a little research I just did it seems like you're right. That does seem like a really unfortunate design decision on their part, although it seems like the unraid fans defend it. Obviously, I guess I cannot be an unraid fan, and I probably can't help you in that case. If it were me, I would try to move unraid to its own port (like all the other services) and install a proxy I control onto port 443 in its place, and treat it like any other service. But I have no idea if that is possible or practical in unraid. I do make opinionated choices and my opinion is that unraid is wrong here. Oh well.
Totally fair... I appreciate you engaging with me, your perspective is appreciated! I won't defend Unraid's choice when it comes to the UI ports, but I will simply say that there are things that are really nice about Unraid from a usability standpoint.
Thanks again for your thoughts!
Convenience is great until it becomes inconvenient. But that's a journey we all make :)
