      Here is the setup I am trying to achieve:

      • Namecheap Domain points to static IP at Hetzner Ubuntu VPS
      • Ubuntu VPS has Caddy and Tailscale installed and ports 80 and 443 open with SSL working properly at domain
      • Ubuntu home server has Cloudron and Tailscale installed, but Cloudron is not configured yet
      • home server is NOT port forwarding
      • The goal is to get Caddy on VPS to reverse proxy using the Tailscale IP address into the Cloudron home server without opening up ports on the home network.
      • Is this possible? The reason I want to do it this way is:
      1. because I can't pay for a VPS with tons of storage and my self-hosted services will use up a lot of storage
      2. because I don't know what I am doing and I am concerned about opening up vulnerabilities to my home network
      3. when I tried to point my Namecheap domain at my home IP using DDNS I could not figure out how to get it to work.
      • If this is possible, what do I need to do as far as NAT loopback, Domain setup, DNS configuration, etc?

        @erronnie Would also be interested in this - in particular if you can still manage mails with your own domain in that setup….
