How to use a domain name with unraid?

Hey Unraiders!

I've purchased a domain name for accessing unraid, and personal/internal docker containers.

I've successfully used another domain name of mine, with SWAG and Tailscale for accessing other certain containers, but I'm looking to see how it might be possible to use my domain name:port for containers, as a generic config; as opposed to configuring a SWAG Proxy for each one, every time I add a new container.

Also - accessing my domain name as opposed to the Tailscale Magic DNS address for my Unraid Server would be cool.

There must be a way to achieve this? Both for Tailnet-only & Internet access.

Thanks!

I hate to say it, but if you have to ask, you probably shouldn't be doing this. Unraid is not secure as it's only ever meant to be run on a secure LAN and opening unraid to the internet is asking for trouble. If your password is brute-forced there is nothing stopping that person from the rest of your LAN. You're basically giving someone the keys to your home network.

Stick with tailscale for remote access.

With that said there is a fun and safe way to use a domain with tailscale fully local that lets you use a domain w/o exposing unraid to the internet.
