nikkinrob Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Hello Yall, I plan to use next cloud, and i know people recommend doing letsencrypt and SSL and such. but i have a couple things here 1) I want my NextCloud to be local only, but be able to access on outside world via VPN into my network. Is this best option for me? 2) I could do the SSL route and setup a no-ip situation, but my problem is no matter what i do inside my network if i try to goto the no-ip address it auto goes to my ISPs Gateway (Xfinity) Very annoying.... Any Feedback appreciated. Quote Link to comment
Jessie Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 If you access via vpn, just set up a basic installation and access it via the lan ip address. eg set the port to 444 and access via 192.168.xxx.yyy:444. Set to ignore all the security warnings. Option 2 if it is going by the isp gateway, I assume that is your WAN address. You need to use letsencrypt docker to route your no-ip address to the server. If your ISP is feeding you a lan address rather than a true WAN address, that is a different issue. Quote Link to comment
rutherford Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 hey @nikkinrob did you get this sorted out? I know it might be tempting to do the VPN, but it seems like 99.9% of folks that want this setup, go with the instructions that Spacedinvader outlines in the how-to video: a Letsencrypt https SSL solution.
