Hello everyone, I’m a new on the forum as well a new user for TrueNAS Core.
I created a NAS server with two functionality:
- Local area network, that was ease to setup.
- And the remote connection using the Nextcloud server plugin, the last one is the only one that has given me problems.
I was able to configure my router to able dynamic dns connections and created a port, thing that you encounter on internet as tutorials. And I want say that my router have a crap custom firmware that support only one dynamic dns connection and two dynamic dns providers; noip and dyndns. After that I enabled dynamic dns services on TrueNAS with a free NoIP account.
I early installed nextcloud plugin, flowing some tutorials and I make my first remote connection like http:// mycustondomain .ddns .net, and was a partial success. I have a connection on other networks or internet points but secure connection was needed for the logon on my local cloud. So I forced https connection flowing this tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mDnBsFxcPc).
Now I can open the nextcloud logon only on my local network, if I try to access the https:// mycustondomain .ddns .net on another internet point, it can't load. This keeps loading until the time expires.
I think the problem is that I have to improve the nginx server connection somehow, but almost all tutorials that I found was linux based. I fell very insecure to try to improvise at this point, and until now nothing like self hosting website. So, that’s why I try the help on this forum.
Thank you all.
