I'm a newbie to the whole selfhosting thing. Been doing NAS+minipc for past 6 months with a few services running. 2 days ago I embarresed myself.
So, I been running 5 services on nginx proxy manager. But I heard that NPMplus is slightly better and can renew certs automatically. I had transferred settings from NPM to NPMplus by hand off the photo and for some reason NPMplus couldn't work with services ran on NAS. I went back to NPM and haven't touched the issue til last Sunday.
During troubleshooting I found out that my dumb ass didnt pay attention and put '':'' instead of ''." . So 192.168.xxx.xx became 192:168:xxx:xx and that was the reason I spent whole day troubleshooting the issue.
Next goal: go back to my homeland and set Pi3 at my parent's place to be my VPN so I can setup an arr stack and automate media downloads in a way that govt. of my current residence couldn't put a deep hole in my wallet.
Do your parents live in a place where that won't happen?
For auto renewing certs: You can do that easily with the normal nginx, using certbot alongside it. Just tell certbot to handle the domain once and it will renew it forever.
Yes. Kind of. It is in EU but afaik piracy is not an illegal thing there yet or is not enforced as much compared to where I live now.
Too late. NPMplus is up and running. Also, I like dark mode.
