Hosting any docker app does not let me access it outside of my network/tailscale

Featured Replies

I don't know where to begin in this; but I list a few things that I have been experiencing with my docker setups:

Plex (will not work outside of my network/tailscale)
Nextcloud [reverse-proxy] (will not work outside of my network/tailscale)
Immich (will not work outside of my network/tailscale)
Any game servers [i,e Minecraft, V-Rising] (will not work outside of my network/tailscale)

I've tried to inspect everything going in within my iptables, even pinging & checking the settings to all the docker networks I use, spent several hours going into my configs, even checked for port forwarding issues and came out empty handed.

diag don't give us everything. Post is too limited, not sure what you mean by can't connect??? Your issues seem to be misconfiguration with dockers and networking...

What are you using for plex for instance? the docker network...

Docker network options is set to what?
host?bridge?custom br0?

what does your network look like???
IE:
?Internet(?Cgnat?) > ?ISP MODEM > Router ??? 192.168.1.x? > ?switch? > PC nic...

some unraid network side setups I recomend to help diag

set unraid to a static IPv4 Addresss:
set your router, tailscale magic dns and a public dns you trust. 1.1.1.1 cloud flare, 8.8.8.8 google, 9.9.9.9 quad 9 208.67.222.123 cisco open dns family filter...

since using tail scale. My data shows some of my router network is 192.168.201.x/24

VM settings:

Docker settings:

You may also need to define extra parameters line for DNS depending on how you setup tailscale...
edit docker > advance tolge and add the --dns=8.8.8.8 to make sure the docker has internet access...

IF using tailscale magic dns and set dns to ture/yes this will override unriad resolve config and dns and can cause intermitten network issues...

and use custom br0

setting plex and other dockers to there own static IP ...

Well did you open any ports in your router so you can connect to your services? You'll need to open ports or your firewall will not allow external connections.

Are you using br0 network mode (custom IPs) for your containers without having enabled the "Host access to custom networks" in the docker settings?

Are you on CGNAT from your ISP? If yes, you won't be able to access your stuff unless they assign you a static IP.
