Hey everyone,

I’m one of the people who still used proton and am now in the process of switching everything and trying to selfhost more.

I sucessfully setup Vaultwarden. I also decided I should move away from having my dockers publicly exposed with nginx reverse proxy and switched everything over to netbird. Im using their proxy feature now to access everything with custom domains and followed a tutorial to setup a bring your own proxy server on a vps. So now all my services are only accessible when my netbird vpn is active. I also spun up a pihole docker and added that to my netbird dns servers to try and get ad blocking on my mobile devices. So far so good.

I wonder however that while some webui’s like vaultwarden run with https, others like radarr dont. Is this a problem or does it not matter so much since i have the vpn running?

I dont really understand how I would go about making them https though. Im on unraid for my dockers and don’t see why some use https and others don’t.

Sorry if this is a convoluted post, I’m quite in over my head with all the networking and dns stuff and just hoping I’m not doing something stupid.

Thanks for your help!

    Yes, because an attacker already in your network will be able to view non SSL traffic.

    I even have my unRAID endpoints using https. You can do self signed, or you can use something like let’s encrypt to do it for you. I use wildcard certs as any signed certs with the full subdomain can expose what services I host internally (since signed certificate provisioning is, by design, a public process).
