Architecture
Local, internal, server at home. It contains most of the services.
Remote, external, server hosted somewhere on the network. It acts as a thin client redirecting connections to I have a home server (i will call it “local”) and an external front-end server (i will call it “remote”). Everything is stored on the local server, the remote server is a thin lightweight server used only to tunnel back to the local server all the external requests.
The advantages of this solution are:
- Secure setup (encrypted tunnel to home, all services exposed trough https, well, almost all)
- Easy maintenance: only an SSH tunnel, the front end has nothing else installed except SSH.
