Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Well, hello there.

I run several services on my NAS at home.

I have a domain which always points at home and redirects port 80 to wikipedia.

Almost all ports are not forwarded, only for those which i want to have access to.

Example:

  • Paperless
  • Syncthing
  • FreshRSS

Now i work on my corporate computer and i cant access my services.

Why?

It blocks connections which go to a specific port.

Now i would love to access freshrss on adress:

Www.domainexample.com:1234

Which gets blocked.

Any ideas?

Messing with the local pc is of course forbidden.

You are like hitting a data protection layer. Basically your corpo does not want you to exfiltrate data (accidentally nor maliciously).

Your options

  • host it on a public endpoint so it looks like a legitimate website that you might need for your work. Chances are this will get blocked eventually.
  • put you corpo laptop in separate vlan and don't mix work and personal stuff. If you need something from your local, open it in your laptop. Everything on your work laptop is monitored.
