    Hi there,

    I have some local services running at home that I would like to make available via Cloudron App Proxy for my Cloudron Users via Internet.

    Therefore I have setup a ssh remote tunnel from my local server to Cloudron. On Cloudron I configured an App Proxy to use http://127.0.0.1:8123 as upstream.

    As this solution does work reliable and I would expand this use to more local services I wonder what Port Range would be the best safe to use for my remote tunnels on Cloudron?

    I think I read somewhere in the Cloudron Documentation that there was a range of ports that could be used safely, but I cannot find it anymore.

    Best,
    Michael

      @Kubernetes Sorry to piggyback: Is this a way to access e.g. my Plex server, which is currently running local only at 192.168.1.50:32400 (as I need it only for my home theater setup), from outside?

        @necrevistonnezr yes, exactly - but not sure how good it works with streaming use case

        the command i execute on my local server is:

        ssh -R CLOUDRONPORT:127.0.0.1:LOCALPORT -N -o ServerAliveInterval=60 -o ServerAliveCountMax=3 USER@CLOUDRONSERVER

          You may want to replace ssh with autossh, so that the connection is restored in case it stops working. This howto looks quite complete: https://m0agx.eu/yet-another-autossh-tutorial.html
