Hello,
I installed Plex Server with a Docker container in my Synology NAS (DS920+).
I access it in my LAN with its IP adresse an 32400 port. i’ve got no problem with it. Everything works fine.
I have a domaine name, say it is myplex.nas.ndd.fr witch redirect to my internet ip address.
As I have severals other service running on my NAS and need to be accessible from internet, I set up a reverse proxy for all my domaine names. So https://blabla.nas.ndd.fr , https://blabla2.nas.ndd.fr* etc… (with 443 port) are redirected on the correct LAN-IP adress/port, severals are on the synology nas, like plex server.
So with https://myplex.nas.ndd.fr I have access to my plex server.
I have to add that on my router, I forward 443 port to my NAS, so the reverse proxy does the rest.
Today, I set “Secure connection” to required :
I can access my plex server using the domaine name through my smartphone’s 4G connection, without problems, but with the macOS Client, this doesn’t works, unless I set this :
At this moment, I get the mention “Indirect”, but I can access my medias and playing works fine (with the macOS client, and with the domain name).
But, is it secure anyway ?
In this screenshot, at background, this is the web access with domain name in https, in foreground the macOS Client :
But, when I use the app.plex.tv website, it doesn’t work all the time. If it works, I get the indirect connection. And when it doesn’t work, I get this :
So, what is the best way to secure my remote connection with my particular setup ?
Thank you in advance, I hope I don’t make too much mistakes in my writing…
