SelfHosting - 1st Half 2025

It was all about…Traefik to get programatic https for homelab services!

While exploring TinyAuth, I revisited the Jims Garage guide on Traefik v3.

Tinkering with Traefik v3

Together with TinyAuth as authentication

TinyAuth x Traefik x Flask

Source Code with a Flask App working with the authentication middleware

It was also the time to set a LogTo example.

Improvements

Nextcloud with Https

Getting Better at sync file tools

All thanks to getting Traefik (traefik:v3.3) to work programatically!

So I just needed to get the domain DNS records accordingly:

nslookup nextcloud.jalcocertech.com

docker exec -it nextcloud /bin/bash
cd /var/www/html/config/
nano config.php

#docker exec -u www-data nextcloud php occ config:list system | grep trusted_domains -A 10
docker exec -u www-data nextcloud php /var/www/html/occ config:system:get trusted_domains #See how many you have, and put the next
docker exec -u www-data nextcloud php /var/www/html/occ config:system:set trusted_domains 2 --value="192.168.1.11"
docker exec -u www-data nextcloud php /var/www/html/occ config:system:set trusted_domains 3 --value="nextcloud.jalcocertech.com"

Going from this: https://jalcocert.github.io/JAlcocerT/selfhosted-apps-spring-2025/#nextcloud

To this

remember to use the Android or iOS app

https://jalcocert.github.io/JAlcocerT/sync-file-tools/#webdavs

https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/31/user_manual/en/files/access_webdav.html

dav://reisikei@192.168.1.11:8080/remote.php/webdav
davs://your_nc_user@nextcloud.yourdomain.duckdns.org/remote.php/webdav
davs://your_nc_user@nextcloud.jalcocertech.com/remote.php/webdav

You can also use the desktop app:

flatpak install flathub com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud

See the transfer speed with

sudo apt install nload
#ip a
nload wlp3s0

Got a transfer speed of , compared to the ~60MB/s avg to ProtonDrive

You can now enable other devices or create accounts for your friends/family:

Third Party Cloud NC Backup

Last month i tried protondrive with rclone https://github.com/JAlcocerT/Docker/tree/main/Backups#rclone

1. ProtonDrive

2. Google Drive

PortMaster and https

If you are using portmaster, you might need to disable DNS config ->Enforce global/private-split view

So that the nextcloud configured via Traefik and tailscale DSN will work

The DNSs

Its all about the DNS.

And I saw on this post that there is an EU alternative to cloudflare, goodle, quad9 and many other DNS: https://www.joindns4.eu/for-public#resolver-options

You can find things to share

In Home Tools

1. Reubah
2. IT/Toos + OmniTools

Conclusions

Filebrowser dev has been abandoned and for me it was still a thing to combine it with PiGallery2.

But now we have filebrowser quantum!
