crabsticks Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Hi, I have installed the unraid.net plugin, I have ssl set to auto, I have provisioned the ssl certificate and forwarded the port correctly, activated remote access with no issues but I only show as having local access on the dashboard and if I try the long hash address for the service I get a This site can’t be reached error, I can only access my server by typing the local ip with https:// at the front. Any ideas what might be wrong? Thanks Quote Link to comment
John_M Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Have you read the section about DNS rebinding protection in the wiki? https://wiki.unraid.net/My_Servers Quote Link to comment
crabsticks Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 I have, but that refers to an issue with provisioning the certificate which I did with no issue. Also I get this error even using the local link in the dashboard so I assumed it wasn't a rebinding issue? Quote Link to comment
Jidovu Marius Adrian Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Did you open the port 443 ? If you do not open the port in the router you will not be able to access it either. Quote Link to comment
crabsticks Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 I opened port 4433 and used the redirect on the settings page, that comes back with a green tick when I check it Quote Link to comment
Jidovu Marius Adrian Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 (edited) Did you change the port in the settings only to "Allow Remote Access" only ? If yes then you have one more tab up a bit to change the port number as well. " HTTPS port: " Edited March 25, 2021 by Jidovu Marius Adrian Quote Link to comment
crabsticks Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 I'm not sure setting you're referring to? Quote Link to comment
Jidovu Marius Adrian Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Is at the management access under " HTTPS port: " you have to change it there as well the 443 Quote Link to comment
ljm42 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Hopefully this helps: The dashboard has a smart link. If it detects you are on the same network as the server it will show you the "Local Access" url, if it detects you are external then it will show you the "Remote Access" url (assuming that is enabled) While on your LAN, if you visit http://<ip address> it will automatically redirect you to https://yourpersonalhash.unraid.net:port On the Settings -> Management Access page, the "HTTPS port" setting is the port to use when connecting internally on your LAN. 443 is the most convenient because then you don't have to include the port in the url (443 is the default port for https) On the Settings -> Management Access -> Unraid.net page, the "WAN port" is the port to use when connecting from the outside. For extra security, this should be a high random number, not 443. And of course, you need to setup a port forward in your router from the WAN port to the internal port. Quote Link to comment

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to reply... The problem I'm having is when unraid redirects to https://yourpersonalhash.unraid.net:port I get the this website can't be reached error. The only way I can access my server is then through https://192.168.1.201 Quote Link to comment

Please check the name and try again It seems that DNS Rebinding Protection was added to your network after setting this up. Please see this page for more details: https://wiki.unraid.net/My_Servers#A_note_regarding_DNS_Rebinding_Protection You'll either need to resolve the DNS Rebinding issue or go back to Settings -> Management Access and set "Use SSL/TLS" to No. Quote Link to comment
crabsticks Posted March 26, 2021 Author Share Posted March 26, 2021 That is strange... When I first added the unraid.net plugin I got the rebinding error... I tried to provision the certificate about 30 minutes later and it work.. The hash address worked and remote access worked for about a day... Then I started to get the error. Seems like my router is rebinding but intermittently? (there is no setting for it in the router) I'll just have to leave ssl off, thanks for all the help 1 Quote Link to comment
John_M Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 The conversation has gone round in a circle and ended up where it started. If you run your own DNS server you can add a local record that resolves yourpersonalhash.unraid.net to 192.168.1.201. Pihole does it nicely. Quote Link to comment
crabsticks Posted March 27, 2021 Author Share Posted March 27, 2021 It hasn't gone round in a circle, it's helped me to understand if I had anything set incorrectly or if there was a way to resolve it. My router is locked to my ISP's DNS server and has no way to turn rebinding off Quote Link to comment
