I use a VPS and a Wiregusrd tunnel together with geoblocking and fail2ban. I've written my setup down, maybe this will help you https://codeberg.org/skjalli/jellyfin-vps-setup

Thank you. Took me quite some time to get it all running through the Wireguard tunnel.

I set up fail2ban together with Caddy which runs as a reverse proxy in front of Jellyfin. I've written down my setup and maybe this will help you https://codeberg.org/skjalli/jellyfin-vps-setup

You're welcome, happy that I can help. I also just updated it a bit. In case you find any issues or have questions please let me know. It was mostly trial and error until it ran..

It's a steep learning curve for sure but once you get the basics it's straight forward until you hit very specific problems.

Are you a Windows or Linux user? They often want to push their Docker UI application but in my opinion docker engine with docker compose is enough. There are probably a lot of great tutorials out there and I can recommend https://www.linuxserver.io/ for images.

https://codeberg.org/skjalli/jellyfin-vps-setup here you go, took me longer than expected and I hope it's helpful, might contain a few errors since I had to remove some settings but I guess this should work.

It's a separate container, currently in the process of writing everything up, will update once done

I am currently in the ptocess to document my docker fioes and upload them to codeberg with a readme, it takes a bit, will let you know once I am done

Will share this evening after work.

My setup: Locally (all in docker):

• JF for managing and local access
• JF with read only mounted volumes that uses the network of my Wireguard client container
• Wireguard client opening a tunnel to Wireguard server on VPS ** Ping container regularly doing pings to Wireguard Server so the connection stays up (didn't manage it otherwise)

VPS (Oracle Cloud free tier, also everything in docker):

• Caddy as a reverse proxy with https enabled and geolocking (only certain countries are allowed to connect to)
• fail2ban to block IPs that try to bruteforce credentials
• Wireguard server

Usernames are not shown in the frontend and have to be entered. Passwords are generated by a password manager and can't be changed by the user.

So my clients just get the URL of my reverse proxy and can access the read only JF through my Wireguard tunnel. Didn't have to open any ports on my side. If someone is interested I can share the docker compose files later.

Edit: Here the link to the setup description. Please tell me if something is not clear or you find an error. https://codeberg.org/skjalli/jellyfin-vps-setup
