What’s your go too (secure) method for casting over the internet with a Jellyfin server.

I’m wondering what to use and I’m pretty beginner at this

    Use a reverse proxy (caddy or nginx proxy manager) with a subdomain, like myservice.mydomain.com (maybe even configure a subdir too, so …domain.com/guessthis/). Don’t put anything on the main domain / root dir / the IP address.

    If you’re still unsure setup Knockd to whitelist only IP addresses that touch certain one or two random ports first.

    So security through obscurity :) But good luck for the bots to figure all that out.

    VPN is of course the actually secure option, I’d vote for Tailscale.

        Not at hand no, but I’m sure any of the LLMs can guide you through the setup if googling does not give anything good.

        Nothing very special about all this, well maybe the subdir does require some extra spells to reverse proxy config.
