I already host multiple services via caddy as my reverse proxy. Jellyfin, I am worried about authentication. How do you secure it?

    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.

          It is enabled, but now I’m doubting that. I’ll double check when my homelab shift is complete.

            It isnt. Else you wouldn’t be able to load many jellyfin assets. Because there’s a colission of the Auth header
