Setup guide

[samolego]

Hi there,

are there any setup guides to access hydroxide from "outer" world? It runs fine locally, but I'd like to set it up so I can access ot from elsewhere - I don't know how to do it securely ...

You generally access local services either via port forwarding, or over a VPN like wireguard. A VPN is the most secure.

Yeah, I know, I'm more concerned about security, since you must set ot to none, in case of open ports that's a problem?

Have it listen on the private IP address and set up ufw or something just in case. I personally have it in a container with gluetun & listening on 100.64.0.x with tailscale.
