How do you guys set internal domains?
Say i dont want to type 192.168.1.100:8096 and want a url instead, say jellyfin.servername - how would I go about that? I don’t want it exposed online via reverse proxy. I don’t need certs. No port forwarding on the router.
How do I type ‘jellyfin.servername’ into a browser and being up the jellyfin dashboard?
I have a domain, but if I don’t have to use it, all the better. So with a reverse proxy, if i don’t want it accessible on the web, i can literally pick anything? I could call it “watch.tv” if i wanted?
Yep! If you have a local DNS server such as a pihole you could just manually add watch.tv to your local dns records and set the IP as your servers IP. If you don’t have a local DNS server, you can just add it to your hosts file.
Once you do this, any requests to that domain will go to your reverse proxy, which if set up correctly will send you to Jellyfin.
