    I’m going to suggest something a bit more out there. You can setup this whole thing with NixOS. I have a bunch of docker containers that run as a systemd service, declared with Nix and personally, I like it very much. It’s also got everything else you want but the atomic upgrades are top tier in NixOS.

    For example if you want NoIP and Cockpit just add this bit to your configuration.nix

        environment.SystemPackages =[
        pkgs.noip
        pkgs.cockpit
    ];

    Adding something like docker or podman is just as easy with a one line like

        virtualisation.docker.enable = true;

    There is always a bit of a learning curve when doing anything with Nix but I find the buy in to be worth it. Here’s a blog post about converting docker compose files over to the Nix format. This really isnt necessary as you could just make the systemd service run a oneshot against a docker compose file but this blog has a lot of nice examples.

    If you have any questions please let me know :D

    It shouldn’t mess with your current routing but if you’re running other VPNs you may run into issues.

    After you join the machines to the tailnet, each machine gets a new IP address ( only visible to other machines in the tailnet), by default it’s a 100.x.y.z you can check the tailnet for the device IP.

    Now you can keep the port closed on your router and it will still be accessible over the usual lan ip and port. But when you want to access remotely, turn on tailscale and connect using the tailnet IP.

    Another cool thing you can do with this setup is turn your home server into an exit node. By default it will only route things that are in the tailnet (100.x.y.z subnet). But if you turn your home server into an exit node you can funnel all your traffic back through the exit node. Instant free VPN back home!

    Unencrypted HTTP can mean that anyone can see your traffic as it passes through their network. Your ISP will see that traffic. If you’re streaming pirated music and you’re in a country that cares about those things, might not go very well. From a security stand point though, you still wouldn’t want to trust the authentication on the open port. A vulnerability may exist that you don’t know about. It’s always better to keep them closed and add another layer or two between your home computer and the public.

    Tailscale let’s you tunnel into your home network without opening any ports, and it encrypts the traffic. Much safer way of doing it.

    Woah, naw 130 meters is not far at all for an AR-15. Max effective range for a point target is 500 meters, meaning you can accurately hit an average sized person at that range. If you have something like a standard issued trijicon ACOG RCO, look at the BDC (Bullet Drop Compensation) lines go all the way to 800m. Interestingly enough too, the width of those lines is the width of an average person’s shoulders at that range.
