Been trying to figure out how to use a WireGuard VPN to access my #HomeAssistant from outside my home network, and, well, it's beaten me. For now.

I can ping it from other machines connected to the VPN, but I'm damned if I can actually connect to it.

Ultimately the trouble is that I don't know what I'm doing.

@DJDarren "you should do what I do"*

*Actually no, don't. I run haproxy on my border router, with multiple host definitions and certificates that then get forwarded to individual hosts or VMs on my local network.
Home Assistant, Traccar (for my car), some network tools, my cameras, etc etc.

Definitely one of those "I do this at scale at work" things!

@greem Some of your words made sense, even in that order!

@DJDarren that’s because @greem is highly optimised for Out Of Order Execution pipelining 😆

@WiteWulf @DJDarren this is correct. I am frequently bang out of order.

@greem @DJDarren “Bang! Out of order” usually infers release of magic smoke 😀

@greem @DJDarren similar here: nginx proxy manager on my big box in the DC that runs all the Plex stuff, and SWAG (same but smaller) on my home server that runs HA. The HA clients have a feature to let them work out if they need to try and connec to the http or https version of the service depending on the network, which is neat.
