No awards are needed, just wanted to share my excitement that while my Jellyfin server still keeps loosing my entire library every 24 hours at least now it has a domain and ssl cert!
That is all. Happy Friday everyone

Ya got three options.
Option A is to create your own certificate that is self-signed. You will then have to load the certificate into any client you want to use. Easier than people realize, just a couple terminal commands. Give this a go if you want to learn how they work.
Option B is to generate a certificate with Let’s Encrypt via an application like certbot. I suggest you use a DNS challenge to create a wildcard certificate.
Option C is to buy a certificate from your DNS provider aka something like cloudflare.
IMO the best is Option B. Takes a bit to figure it out but its free and rotates automatically which I like.
I like helping and fixing stuff, if you’d like to know anything just ask :D

Oooo ya know I actually don’t know about these. I’ve done both A and B for my homelab and C for work.
Any good resources / insight into mTLS? I appreciate the response btw!

You really should not expose stuff to the internet willy nilly. If you must you need to have extensive monitoring and security controls plus you should understand the application at a deep level.

Well ya know this is a forum and I was trying to engage in a friendly conversation to learn about something you brought up.
But yeah I know how to fucking Google lol

Then why reply at all? Zero effort is to avoid commenting, maximum effort is trying to answer, “Google?” is wasted effort

Who pissed in your cornflakes?
That is for server side certs not client side. I’m talking about Mutual TLS.
Setting up https is not going to stop bots. All it does is prevent man in the middle attacks. You want to limit who and what can access Jellyfin so that you don’t end up being a victim of an automated exploit.
