I already host multiple services via caddy as my reverse proxy. Jellyfin, I am worried about authentication. How do you secure it?
You could put authentik in front of it too
Jellyfin is secure by default, as long as you have https. Just chose a secure passwordNo, it isn’t.
EDIT: I quickly want to add that Jellyfin is still great software. Just please don’t expose it to the public web, use a VPN (Wireguard, Tailscale, Nebula, …) instead.
Kinda hard because they have an ongoing bug where if you put it behind a reverse proxy with basic auth (typical easy button to secure X web software on Internet), it breaks jellyfin.
Best thing is to not. Put it on your local net and connect in with a vpn
I’m not experiencing that bug. My reverse proxy is only accessed locally at the moment though. I did have to play with headers a bit in nginx to get it working.
Basic auth. The bug is if you enable basic auth.
It is enabled, but now I’m doubting that. I’ll double check when my homelab shift is complete.
