Internal Network Certificate Issue with Traefik for Local Host Overrides

Hello,

For optimizing my internal network traffic, I've set up host overrides for certain applications, including Jellyfin and Nextcloud. My intention is to ensure traffic remains within the local network whenever possible.

However, I'm encountering a certificate issue. When accessing these applications externally, the correct certificates are served. But, for internal access, Traefik defaults to its own certificate, which is not valid.

Has anyone faced a similar challenge or can provide guidance on resolving this inconsistency? I'd like to ensure that the proper certificates are used, regardless of whether access is internal or external.

Thank you in advance for any insights.

Well, Traefik is a Truecharts app, and they have their own support channels that aren't here. But this nonetheless sounds odd. You're using the same FQDN internally and externally, right? Because that's how Traefik knows which cert to serve. And if you bypass the cert error, do you still get the right resource?

Thank you for pointing that out. Yes, I am using the same hostname for both internal and external accesses. Despite the certificate inconsistency when accessing internally, I do indeed get directed to the right application resources. It's just the certificate discrepancy that's puzzling me.

Any further insights or advice would be highly valued.

Thanks again for your assistance.
