      Hello to all,

      I was testing a proxy setup (to reduce our needs for IPv4), and I noticed that for WildCard DNS, Cloudron would try to get from the nameserver his own IP.
      But this will always fail because the DNS point to the proxy.

      Would it be possible to validate with HTTP?

        @MooCloud_Matt are you refering to app proxy? If so, why will the DNS fail if it points to the proxy? DNS should point to the proxy.

          Apologies for any confusion. To clarify, I am suggesting that we set up an ingress proxy on our network with Cloudron operating behind it.

          Similar to what happens with a Cloudflare Proxy install.

            @MooCloud_Matt I think you can just use "no-op" in your situation and also use a custom wildcard certificate. The proxy can then accept just that wildcard cert.

            no-op ignores DNS checks. The cert can be Let's Encrypt or not depending on if your proxy can carefully forward well-known HTTP requests.
