melagodo Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Hi guys. I'm happily using Unraid 6.7 (now 6.8), and using SSL (so web GUI address is "converted" to that long string). Today I had to reboot server for maintanance: I could not then resolve that address, not from my laptop nor from my phone. I then tried from an iPad and boom: everything working as expected. I could ping and ssh to server, so I guess it's some kind of network problem. Any hint to avoid that in the future? Thank so much Quote Link to comment
soja Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 SSL would just add https:// to the address instead of http://. Do you mean you were using a dns hostname? Quote Link to comment

Not quite. Have you used the SSL service in unraid yet? It provisions a hostname that decodes back into a local IP, which makes things complicated sometimes. If you don't have a static IP for Unraid in your LAN, then the hostname can point to the wrong IP when you reboot. I would advise setting a static DHCP reservation in your router for Unraid, that should keep things a little happier when you have to reboot. Quote Link to comment

EDIT: Found it. very strange that they would call it that since it is just giving you a free custom dns hostname with a lets encrypt cert attached to it.

I can confirm that a static DHCP reservation is set in my router. Ping and ssh were targeted to the same IP as I'm used to, and it was working. My browser just seemed not able to resolve the hostname... Quote Link to comment

Could that be because I'm not using piHole DNS on my Unraid machine? You need to remove the https:// when using nslookup. I tried resolving it a couple ways and I am getting nothing back. Does the registration expire?
