servidude Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 (edited) I recently set up my uNRAID 6.7.0 server to use SSL (use SSL/TLS = Auto). I also have my router setup to use OpenVPN. When I VPN into my home network, and try and type my server's IP (192.168.etc) into a browser, I get a SSL certificate warning and cannot proceed... see below. I am assuming this is caused by a conflict between unRAID's SSL certificate and my router's? Any way to mitigate the issue? Before I had SSL turned on, I was always able to use this method... Thanks for any advice! Edited May 21, 2019 by servidude Quote Link to comment
Cameron Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 You are getting the warning because you are accessing the website by ip address (whereas your certificate was issued to <some long hex>.unraid.net). When you try to access unRaid's webGUI from HTTP it will redirect you to <some long hex>.unraid.net where the certificate matches the domain. It looks like you are accessing unRaid's webGUI via HTTPS, so you're never redirected to the unraid domain and as such the certificate doesn't match. Quote Link to comment

So, what's the solution? Explicitly browse the web GUI via http, not https? Quote Link to comment
John_M Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 You could use http://ip-address and let it redirect, or use http://tower and let it redirect, or if you have a DNS server, use http://tower.domain.com and let it redirect. Or, without redirection, use https://<some long hex>.unraid.net I save the last one as a browser bookmark for quick access. Just avoid using https://ip-address and https://tower because of the certificate mismatch, as Cameron explained. 1 Quote Link to comment
