So…in a short sentence…the title. I have a server in a remote location which also happens to be under CGNAT. I only get to visit this location once a year at best, so if anything goes off…It stays off for the rest of that year until I can go and troubleshoot. I have a main location/home where everything works, I get a fixed IP and I can connect multiple services as desired. I’d like to make this so I could publish internal servers such as HA or similar on this remote location, and reach them in a way easy enough that I could install the apps to non-tech users and they could just use them through a normal URL. Is this possible? I already have a PiVPN running wireguard on the main location, and I just tested an LXC container from remote location, it connects via wireguard to the main location just fine, can ping/ssh machines correctly. But I can’t reach this VPN-connected machine from the main location. Alternatively, I’m happy to listen to alternative solutions/ideas on how to connect this remote location to the main one somehow.

Thanks!

    THanks…I haven’t tried Tailscale yet, I think I’ll get the “easier” commercial version just yet for this. Still learning on this.

      I’ve been told that zerotier is even better. Haven’t tried it myself (it looks more complicated to selfhost) but the guy suggesting it knows waaaaay more than me on these things. Just if you want to look into another option.

      For what it’s worth (from a random guy on the internet) selt-hosting tailscale is quite easy! 🙂
